Ooooh! Lightning. Bet a direct strike wouldn't do your camera electronics any good... Shot looks a bit on the grainy side, but not distractingly so. Love the sky colors.

I am personally not crazy about the strong blue tint in the image, but I really like how the lightning sort of goes with the flow of the trees.

Cool lightning capture. I wish the horizontal made by the tops of the trees wasn't right in the middle.

really nice; I hope it has the juice to go far- it may not be a focused and enough of a decipherable subject- but its really good in my book...

this would be a lot stronger with the trees a bit more in focus, and a tighter crop. right now the lighting seems puny and insignificant, cropping more off the left half would make the scene feel more ominous.
