Comment by Imagineer:
Amazingly 'dark' capture of the lightning while retaining plenty of detail in the foreground. There appears to be no ambient glow around the bolt at all. Interesting scene and structure.

GREETINGS FROM "happy world of criticism club by mehmet"

i like this image lots, it has couple things going for it, first the pose and the positioning of the girl which i like very much and the expression on her face is a plus, but her hands in the side like that sems to indicate her being nervous perhaps, and that takes away some from the overall image. another thing is the optical illuison that takes place at the sindow. this is the primary point what makes the picture interesting i think ..and perhaps the model of the car that is coming from behind i mean what are the chances...lack of contrast is a issue though.. i would like to see this with higher contrast..great job.. keep it up

Ten. Yep. Very nice clarity, and the lightning adds to the shot. It's a good shot without it, too.

What a cool photo, I may have chopped just a little more off of the bottom...but very well done.. Good luck.

Greetings from the CC, I respect that you created an artistic shot, the fill flash on the flower makes it pop, tho i wonder if you had taken a step backwards it may not have popped so much and created a more natural light? And may not of taken away from the focus point of the shot so much. Perhaps if the girls were bent down as if picking or smelling the flower it may have been more cohesive of a shot. i hope that you do not give up at trying to be creative, we need more of that on dpc just try to blend the elements of the shot as much as possible. My overall advice would be to have simplicity of subject.
hope it helps and happy shooting!

Background feels cluttered, has kind of a snapshot feel.

very clever and on-topic; background right behind little child's head detracts (I know it's tough getting the right angle in crowded areas)
