share your lightning photos

Gods wrath in the form of electricity. Mine is not that great, it was my first try, but lets see what you guys got!

wow, that's nice

Not bad for a first try!

thanks guys I was using the light activated trigger in magic lantern. It supposedly has a 300-400 millisecond delay so its kind of useless for capturing lightning unless it strikes again during the time the image is still exposing. I think its better to just use bulb mode and start exposing just before you "feel" lightning is going to strike. This shot was disappointing for me in contrast to the amazing gargantuan lightning bolts i missed that night. Also after doing this I realized that you have to have some extremely dumb luck to capture lightning without the rain looming overhead.

those are great! I am dying for a great lightning shot

Nice job. Care to share you technique?

Playing witth a lightning trigger I am designing. Reacts between 3-5mS + your camera trigger time...

This was also my first time trying to photograph lightning. View from second floor, took it from inside the house. I had the shutter speed at 2 seconds and when I clicked for testing, the sky said "Cheese". Very surprised I even got this shot. Not the best but this is literally the only shot I was able to pull off.

Wow Christopherm! looks like a close call. Very nice shot

I've tried it a couple of times, not in the best conditions. Most of the lightning was either cloud-to-cloud or quite weak, so i was at ISO400 to get it to show up.

Apart from the first one, which was close and lit up all the rain drops.

Two more, more cloud-to-cloud.

Nice photos in here.
Here is one of my captures...
