 I took this a couple days ago in a thunderstorm. Taking pictures of lightening proved to be particularly difficult. I took the picture by holding the shutter open and then releasing it as soon as the lightening flashed.

The tree line is a little fuzzy. I think if that were sharper it would make all the difference

Beautiful lighting, I think it would have been better to crop off a fair portion of the bottom...its not necessary.

Looks like there was too much carmera shake. When doing shots like this i always use the self timer because I don't have a remote.
