I would have expected this to finish much higher. This is by far a more difficult shot to obtain than those who finished above, and absolutely comes back to how well you work with your equipment and environment.

Still, can't scoff at a 6.4 when you're up against so many pretty photos! Congrats!

Wow, quite a storm there. I like the tones and the link between the lightning and the power lines.
