This is so beautiful. Not only did you capture a double banger but also managed to get a small vertical in the picture. Congratulations Mark.

Thanks for the comment, Riny. I did use a tripod for the shot. It was my first time trying to shoot lightening and I found it to be about 10% skill and 90% luck. I set to shutter priority and set the speed to 10 seconds. I aimed and hoped and let the camera do the rest.
Like I said in the description, it really wasn't much of a show. In fact, there were only two bolts like this. I missed the first one and caught the second.

Thanks, Larry. Funny that I didn't even notice! It was a lucky catch. There weren't but 2 bolts like that in the 15 minutes I was out there. I just happened to catch one of them.

A wonderful capture of these two bolts! I have always wanted to do a series on lightning, but am afraid my camera will get wet in the process! :)

Excellent capture, Mark! The thing is, you were there with the proper equipment and timing to get the shot, in effect you made your own luck! Well done!

Superb capture Mark, these are so difficult to capture. I find that the lightning around here only strikes in the evening and usually the evening when you have to get up early and cannot get out storm chasing lol
Best wishes,
Steve
