Do you guys think there is any chance of selling these? I doubt it. While you captured some pretty cool bolts, the shots are underexposed which brings out the noise. What were your settings? My first attempt at lightning was a disaster. It takes practice, practice, and of course a little luck. Looking forward to seeing more. "Whatever you can do to avoid Photoshop is worth it"

Your camera can create some great images just try a faster ISO and open up the aperture to around f/4. The exposure time of 13-15secs is what I usually use also. With lightning it is very hard to capture a great image since the intensity of the bolt is unknown and hard to expose properly for. A good rule of thumb is to open the aperture with distant lightning and stop down when it is close. Stop all together when it is too close. "Whatever you can do to avoid Photoshop is worth it"
