GEEZ! How did you capture this? Love the blue tones - creates an even more ominous atmosphere. Well done.

This is nice captured. I have also captured 2 thunders in one night. I have uploaded my photos to my profile.

Eric, Just saw this. (Out viewing profiles again.) AMAZING! I know how hard it is to get great looking lightening shots due to timing issues. This is perfectly framed and everything. Love the coloring.

I love the royal blue and purplish tones. This is an amazing and frightening capture. Gorgeous!

This photo is SWEET! I love everything about it, especially the color and the smooth way it fades into the black on the sides

This is super incredible. I wish I lived somewhere that had lightning!

With a 12-24mm? You brave brave person LOL. Most excellent shot of lightning I have seen a while. Job well done. The sound of this thing hitting so close must've been hair raising.

Wow! This is one of the better lightning shots I have seen.

8 - Very nice. Like to have seen the gradient going down into the bottom right corner softened to lessen the distraction there, and a little on the left too. Minor, but the light filtering through the trees/bushes on the bottom left corner perhaps cloned out/darkened. The lightning coming through the trees/bushes at the bottom is a good effect, in my opinion.

There's a certain magic about lightning shots.

I have a morbid fascination with thunderstorms and they never fail to catch my eye. The colouring increases the feeling of foreboding. Great shot.

Wowsers!! That is one of the better lightning shots I've seen. The trees and clouds add a lot to the image. Nice job, nice job indeed.

Woah! Blue turmoil! I love the sweep and curl of the clouds and the framing of the trees on the other side - but the lightning bursts through it all! a "striking" ( ;-) sorry ) composition. Gorgeous!

Fabulous shot. Not only did you captured the lightning well but the end result is quite artistic.
Post actions
A very dramatic shot, but without some clear subject (aside from the lightening) to add interest or act as a focal point of the photo, it just doesn't measure up in a "best of year" challenge. Nice photo, but very average in this pack.

Cool lightning shot! I've been playing with these for a while myself. A tighter crop would have been my chice as the trees are of no use at all. Good work!
