Love the purple sky and wow on the lightening part!! Aren't you glad the barn lights were on?? Love this image.

Lots of spooky potential in this scene. I like the lightning, the light spilling from the barn door and the white fence. Not so fond of the sidewalk and lights and such off to the right. I think I would crop much tighter and play with contrast and dodging and burning to really play up the idea of something in that barn responding to the lightning, with the fence as a leading line. Just for fun :-)

your timing was good

maybe cropping out the bottom to the blacker grass area, would have had ore of an impact

Nice capture but I don't know why the image is so pixelated. Too bad.

Great that you caught lightening - that's always exciting.

What's really cool about this shot is the light coming out of the garage/shed/whateveritis. It give the photo a sci-fi kind of feel.

The thing poking into the frame at the top left? It's advanced editing - you could have taken care of that. Also, a tighter crop - cutting off the bottom concrete drive or path would have benefited this photo.

Fantastic lightning capture! Looks like some jpg pixelation and depth of focus issues, but I still love this shot.
