 I was watching this storm come in and ran up the hill for a picture. This ended up being to only bolt that happened once I was in position. I found that night lightning was similar settings to astro shots. 15 second exposure, 2.4 apature, 400 iso

Absolutely stunning! The only thought I̢۪d have is if you could bring a little out in the lower left corner. Not much at all - just a tiny hint. The color or the sky is incredible, and I love the streak from the vehicle.

Love the subtle textures and colors, especially in the sky. The lights of the village and the road nicely balance the lightning. Can't vote but would have voted 9
