What do you think about Lightning?

[JohnClark]

I have some new shots of lighting that i took last week. I have been unable to get around to putting much into them. The first ones are new the rest are old. I am always trying to get feedback on what I have done, I don't have the Speed of any the shots but I did use the Canon Digital Rebel on M set to Bulb also used the 18-55mm lense that came with the camera a Bembo 1 Tripod with a compact ball and socket head with revolving base, best thing in the world.

The lense is pretty good for some things and bad for others, I have been really impressed by the work the lense it can do and the camera, i have about 2500 actuations if not more from the camera.

If any of you Critques out there have any advice i would be more than happy to hear it. I am putting together a website, slowly, with all my lighting pictures, as that is all I know how to take. Enough Bull!@#t here are the photos.

I like your lightening shots, very cool :) The first one needs some work, darken the left side of the picture, probably with blended exposures.

I don't have the Speed of any the shotsIt's right there in the EXIF. Looks like 1, 2 and 3 were around 30 seconds each, and the last one was 8 seconds.

That last one is definitely my favorite. Great color.
