Thanks to all again for the great comments and another top ten shot. I used a manual control of the shutter and did a "one two" count then released for a count of one if lighting were to occur while my finger depressed the shutter I would hold a moment longer. I figured if I did it this way I would have an open shutter 66% of the time which worked out because I managed to get about 5 good shots of lighting. My first attempt at this kind of shot.
Simply stunning capture - what incredible luck to get such positioning! Did you have to crop the image much? This is my10 for the challenge because it just has to beat all the other 'staged' shots. [10]
Good timing and nerves of steal to capture this shot. (I tend to hide under my bed or at least covers when thunder and lightening occur : ) ). Good contrast between the lightening and the dark house. Just curious about the blueish line over the house, is that another lightening strike or a reflection in camera.
wow! this one definatly got my attention in the thumbnail gallery! that is a great shot, it looks like you were really close. (I would have crapped myself!) i would have cropped a little off the right side though
