My first attempt at photographing lightning. It was taken at 8:48pm. Quick edit in PSP with "One Step Photo Fix".

The sky is very dreary. I'd try and play that up more with your editing by making it darker and perhaps converting to b/w. Also, the shapes just aren't interesting in this composition. To try and remedy that going with a square crop may work better (i.e. removing most of the right side). The parts that are most interesting is the lightning but also the foreground boulders are bigger on the left side and the land across the lake tapers off to the left which may add some dynamic to the shot if it was more a focus. Just a thought.

I like the muted pastel colors. Even the lightning is pastel! The composition is okay, but not very interesting. I wish the lightning had worked harder for you and made some interesting shapes! :)
