Thanks, Peta. I didn't know what I had gotten until I got it on the computer. All I saw was the big bright one in the middle. I was sure I had gotten it, but didn't see all the other stuff until later. I was thrilled. Needless to say, it about shook me of the porch!

A really great lightning shot, Mark. Perfect exposure. Very nicelly done, a keeper. How did you get the neighbors to turn their porch lights on? :-) This may have been the bolt that took our lights out for over an hour :-( Larry

Thanks, Patrick.
It was a combination of being at the right place at the right time, and some luck that the shutter was open at the right time. I'll show you the 30 shots I have with nothing but the houses in them if you like!

Fantastic...and not JUST the bolts of lightning, but the added effect of the house lights (especially the middle one!).
I have been longing for a try at lightning...it's been so dry here our grass has been dead since June!

A great image Mark, I like the warm lights of the houses. That storm built up just to the northeast of our place. It was a huge cloud with lots of lighting. I didn't get the camera out but should have. Nice work Mark. Glad yuu are busy. Don.

Thanks, Paul. This is in midtown Omaha in an area called Dundee. Most houses are around 85-90 years old.

WOW! We had a storm here tonight and I tried this... but no luck for me. It started raining too hard to stay out on the porch. Great capture- these are hard to do and you do them well!

Thanks Kay. I've been chased off the porch many times myself. Once the wind blows the rain, I'm outta there!
I just keep coming back hoping for that one shot. Luckily, I've gotten two pretty good ones this year.

It's always pleasing to catch that rare, visible bolt when it happens. Ever since I bought my cable release for my 20D, there's only been one decent storm roll through here...and I got it.
