Next time you go lightning shooting, (you have a good camera so this should be relatively easy for you) leave your shutter open for long amounts of time..

This way you'll catch more light and more lightning.. It's a trick my brother taught me.. Leave your ISO to rough 160

Depends on the light aswell, try to avoid city lights or lamps.

COLOUR DUDE!

Nice though;

Due to the high ISO speed an me not shooting RAW, the color was horribly off. It just looked better BW. Also, for the longer shutter opening: It was really a quickshot, out my window and I didn't have my tripod at hand

Next time I'll be prepared though. There are thunderstorms galore at the moment, due to the general hotness.
