Amazing, simply beautiful. I would give my **** for a shot like this. Could have improved it a hair by rotating one or two degrees clockwise.

I love lightning shots and the way some of the clouds are highlighted is great; I would have liked it better if the sea & foreground clouds were slightly more visible.
Post actions
nice shot, a bit too much black

WOW .. talk about being in the right place at the right time .. those lightning flashes are amazing .. the colours spectacular .. great shot .. :)

Nice capture, I've been trying to capture lighting for awhile now, just never in the right place at the right time. Good job!

A Nice capture, dramatic. I Just don't understand why the 15 pixel tilt to the left, I takes away from the image. I know some may say why worry about a slight tilt but the water line is 15 pixels lower on the left side than the the right. It's enough to make involuntary tilt my head to the left while viewing instead of being able to look at it level. I still find the overall photograph appealing enough to warrant a good score. I would just keep an eye on making sure the horizon is level in future shots.

Really cool shot, and good capture of the lighting. Though I am sure you have had this comment before, the horizon is tilted.

What a dynamic shot! I see why it would be a gem.

Very nice image. It's good to see a few "great" images. This is a perfect reflection of your abilities as a photographer.

Amazing that you captured 2 lightning strikes, the blue and white is just intense. I really wish you had straightened your horizon though.
Post actions
Great capture. I love how they are emerging from behind the clouds.

Looks like a heavy storm, but the lightning is beautiful.

I LOVE TO HEAR THE THUNDER WATCH THE LIGHTNING WHEN LIGHTS UP THE SKY...

Great PP job - love the tone - keep up the good work

Awesome capture of those two lightning bolts. I notice the sea is tilted on the horizon, though. Might want to fix that. 6

Sweet timing to catch this. great tones.

I might have cropped this closer to bring the lightening more into the viewers eye IMO

The darkness on the left hand side draws me away from the rest of the photo.

Electrifying image :-) Incredible detail and shapes. I love how the clouds above are also lit up. Maybe a little less negative space on the left?
Post actions
Nice lightening picture. A little to dark everywhere else but good detail on the lightening.

great shot, to bad cloud hides half of the lightning.
Post actions
wonderful colors and great mood, but your horizon is not straight which for me is a little distracting

What a gorgeous shot. I hope you weren't on a boat in that storm!

Good catch of almost identical lightning strikes. The lighting is pretty good and ominous looking also. The horizon seems a bit tilted down to the left.
