Hi, my first picture post and my first attempt to capture lightning.

Supposedly, there were over 4000+ strikes that night. I got around 10 odd shots with lightning. Here is the best of the lot....

awesome work. It must have been a major storm, this particular shot has very strong lightning in it.

Its the time of the year in HK I guess. I dont know if the typhoon season (next 1 month) is supposed to produce something more spectacular :)
