Impressive ! How luky (and good photographer ) you are because it' so difficult to take it in a daylight.

The -only- thing that would have made this better is if the power lines weren't there. However, I know that a shot like this isn't easy, so it's hard to even complain about that. Overall, excellent shot.

But then... looking at the shot, again, (with the power lines) you could almost contrast our source of energy/electricity versus a much more natural charge. It's kinda cool.

heck yes! when I was driving through the bad part of the storm later a bolt struck right next to my truck. I'm not really sure how close it actually was but all I saw was a flash and an instant BOOM!

Ooohh... Very nice.

I want to take a pic like that too, but I can wait on lightning storms. Storms aren't exactly calm anymore so I can wait.

But very cool shot.
