Thank you
It did get a bit scary, in fact I had to retreat inside as it passed over me.

Thank you, I’m still not happy with this one where is more there than the posted images shows. I need to learn more about CS3’s capabilities. It was quite a night.

This is AMAZING!!! The rain is visible, the entire image is fantastic! I just spent about 45 min on your gallery and I have so much respect for what you have posted and I am proud of your images!

Well, thank you. As I have said before about this one I am not totally happy with the image yet but I hope be able to bring out more of what I know is there. As it is now one can see that there is a lot going on but it is not as clear as it should be.

Thank you.
I took lots of pictures that night, two of which are also posted here, at one point I had to take refuge in my trailer as the storm passed very dramatically overhead. It was quite a night. You can see why I like that area, here's the same view in the day time --> [link]

I really admire your talent with the lightning displays and I know it is quite hard to capture well.

Thank you
That was the third and most impressive night of storms with the first two night’s efforts having been very disappointing. I finally figured out the proper focusing strategy and exposure values. All of which is to say that I got lucky that night.

Amazing

is that a rain-front near the left lightning? if it is that would make this shot even more unique and spectacular than it already is.
