Agree wholeheartedly! Been trying to get a good shot of lightning for ages... So while not really original happy that I finally nailed a good shot!

This is amazing! The colours are stunning, I think the trees totally add to the dynamic of the photo aswell. Brilliant!

Wow, looks like an awesome storm! Nice shot, I suppose lightning is quite hard to photograph, but you did a good job!

Thanks mate!
Found the best way was to set the camera to manual with exposure set long upto 30secs, large aperture and ISO 100-200... Setup on tripod... If there was a good strike or two covered the lens to prevent the flash lightning from wiping out the strikes... Thanks for the Fav too!

Cheers mate! Upped the saturation and noise reduction in RAW editor + smudged out gutter caught on the left of the shot in photo elements, else not really manipulated... Will load more soon!
