I should start taking more photos with my super dooper digital camera.
 
Yes, you see, when I was uploading, the original, I relized "This willt ake forever" So I loaded it Into PS7 and saved it for web and decreased the actual pixel size of it, then uploaded it....

This last pic was just a timed exposure shot of the back of my
two vehicles and the side of my neighbors house. I was actually
going for some more lighting shots but I like the colors in this
exposure.

Veyr nice Pako, my only suggestions being that you try to get the bolts in the centre of the shot, although some offset pics are good....

👍

Perhaps if I asked Mr. and Mrs. lightning to arc just a little more to the right...., I might have them better centered... :D

J/K, but seriously though, I was outside in barefoot, half asleep...., it was raining and I was too lazy, tired, or asleep, to drive to a new location. There were a lot of trees and tops of houses that were in the way. I saw some really cool strikes, but there was too much obstruction in the way. Next time, I'll take the time to go to this look out spot and setup the camera there..., that would awesome! :)

Make sure you post them up here. :D.
 
Thanks, will do.

For those interested, here are the settings I used for the above four lightning shots.

Added another one, and the lightnings even centered... :)

:cheers:
 
Those new ones are incredible! I like the second from the bottom the most.... Is there any way I can get a higher res version of that? I kinda want to use it as my background.
