Those are awesome.
I think these two would have beat mine... I see the rain, just not the main subject of the shot.

| Very cool! I wish I could get some lightning like that around here. Just curious, did you tweak the hue in those yourself, or is that a white balance effect? |

| Wow! Great shots! I've never done lightning; what settings do you use? I really have to start trying new things. |

The first one that Soni posted is about what all of them looked like out of the camera. It was the only one that I left looking "normal". The rest I played with bcause I thought it was fun. |

F8, ISO 50, and the bulb setting. Exposures ranged from 10sec to 50sec. Just depended on how many bolts flashed in a given time. |

| Those must be the best lightning shots I have ever seen. "Good job!" would be a major underestimation. :> |

| Cool! I don't think I'd be able to get shots like that. Were you out on a road, or under cover someplace or what? I see these kinds of shots and wonder because I'd be scared witless standing out in that kind of weather! |

I was actually quite a distance from this storm. Most were shot at 200-300mm and they are still cropped in some for the final image. I was standing just off a highway. I was driving home when I saw all this going on in my rearview mirror. So I set up and took shots for the next 45 min or so. |
