| A lot of drama in this shot! Of course, the lightning steals the show here over the colors, which serve as a nice background. I like how you've isolated the lighted area of the street. |

| Great job getting the lightning and the upper clouds -- you will probably lose points for not straightening the horizon (you could do that easily when cropping without losing anything significant). |

oooh , lightning , this pic would get a 10 if it had just been the sky and not the inclusion of the ground. 9
sorry let me amend that , of course the pic and title would not make sense without the bottom part,
well done on the capture of the lightning, |

Honestly, I don't think you took this image while thinking of a way to shoot complementary colors ;o) But it sure turns out like one, although I really think that more colorful images would score better.
You did however manage to capture a great lightning here. Composition works well, with the massive clouds above and the tiny objects below. The area of improvement lies in these objects, though. There not completely clear and in focus. The ground-scene also looks tilted because of the non-vertical poles. Imho, the image would have had much more impact without the ground-elements. But then you loose one of your two colors offcourse :o)) Regards and good luck, Marco. |

| I'd like to see this srtaghtened so that the lamp-posts and flag-poles aren't slanting. I actually think this might have been more intersting withoutt the lightning - it isn't a particularly intersting strike. |

| Wow this is a very cool picture -- I always have the worst luck trying to capture lightning and so I always appreciate good shots of it -- I think in terms of hitting the depiction of the complementary colours it falls a bit short. Too much of the photo is taken up by the clouds and sky, which add nothing to the point. |

| This is a really cool photo. I love the way each element is isolated but combine to create an interesting and dynamic arrangement. The slight tilt of the ground helps to create an unsettling feeling. Nice colors and crisp lines. I really hope people give this photo the credit it deserves. -T |

| Increadible clouds! Very dramatic subject. The purple contrasts very well with the yellow light. Terrific how you caught this. Wish the earthly subject matter was as interesting as the heavenly (at least more cohesive) But that is a little too much to ask! 8 |

| This is a GREAT capture. I love the colors and the lighting in the clouds. I think it's neat how the lightening flashed just above the flags in this picture. I could be wrong but it seems just a little crooked. Perhaps just a little rotation to the right would make the houses and flags appear more even. Except for that nit picking thing, this is definately a WOW in my book. Good luck in the challenge. |

| Amazing capture! The layering effect is fantastic. Was it like going fishing for lightening? Leave the shutter speed long and hope to catch the lightening? You did it, and very well - 10. |

| Nice! I wish the road (is it a road?) were not slanted. |

| great capture - and I realise you put the yellow stuff in the bottom to meet the challenge, but this would be a lot more dramatic with just the sky/ cloud/ lightning. 10 for the top 4/5ths of the shot, 1 for the bottom 1/5th (8) |

| Great capture. It seems strange with the slanted parking lot, there. I'm not sure what it would look like with a straight parking lot and a slanted cloud line, though. |

| Wow! Now if only the image were rotated to get the flagpoles vertical... |

| Nice catch! It seems a bit tipped to me, maybe that was intentional. |

| interesitng shot... lightinging isn't very easy to photograph... the complementary colors are here, but I feel that, in my interpretation of the challenge, that the colors need to play some sort of role in the photo. the challenge topic requested using two complementary colors to compose the photograph... = 5 |
