Description The past few days have been really rainy. There have been several lightening storms. Tonight I got a couple of pictures of some that was a few miles away. Unfortunately they were like 2-3 between bolts. Which is very hard to time. The best if they are about 30 seconds apart. But I did get a couple. This one was the best.

This looks like near-perfect timing on this photo. I love the purple against the black.

Hmmm maybe set it on a longer exposure, 30 seconds or so, but close your aperture so you dont over expose

I love the croping on this one better. Gives it a nice contrast.

has it been manipulated in anyway?....its just i notice there are no camera details for it...i "painted" out some background on a pic of mine once...and it lost the camera data,then i was accused of not actually taking it.

The contrast was adjusted and it was also cropped. The original image is huge, this one was made smaller to be more internet friendly.
