Description
I was in South Tyrol, Italy again, up on 2000m sea level, at a tiny hut in the middle of nowhere. The lights you see to the right in the middle is the city of Bolzano, at the bottom is St. Zyprian. And I got really lucky that night, 5 or 6 bolts of lightning in a row, and I got them all (and many more that I didn't get of course).Picture:

Wow, wirklich sehr schön festgehalten, geht nicht leicht, es so scharf und deutlich zu erwischen, wenn überhaupt.
Btw, I love how "Lightning I" has one lightning in it and "Lightning II" has two. XD

Danke! Ja, hab ziemlich Glück gehabt da oben.
Hehe, good catch! I originally had it the other way round, but noticed only minutes before submitting

So clear and amazing! I just love a good lightning photo and this is no exception. I can never seem to get lightning like this when I try, but then, I don't exactly have any good views from where I'm located.
And you must definitely have had luck on your side that night! I've not heard of many people being able to snatch that many in a row.
I think what I find most interesting about this photo is the cloud. It seems kind of spooky in a way! But it looks great with the purple.
Awesome shot

I usually suffer from the same problem: no cammy with me, bad views, you name it.. This time I was extremely lucky!
The cloud(s) were great that night as well, seeing them travel really fast was impressive. So it was cloudy one minute and clear the next; and even more cloudy a couple of minutes later.
Cheerio!
