Well those are amazing!
I love the last one the most...
If I had to nitpic...I would only be able to come up with your sig on the 1st shot. It is too big and cuts too close to the drama of the shot

Where you holding the shutter open manually as well or using a remote? Thanks for the comments everyone, I'm pretty happy with them, just a case of being in the right place at the right time when the storm is mature and spitting out dangerous 'positive' lightning where instead of coming from cloud to ground out the base of the cloud, it basically 'spits' out the side from much higher up with more amperage. Very powerful and has a long range, but makes for killer pics!

Thunderstruck' THREAD STARTER Mostly Lurking 18 posts Joined Jan 2009 Location: Darwin, NT, Australia More info | Thanks everyone!! Certainly hasn't been any good lightning since then to take pics of. Just a case of right place at the right time. Taking pics of bolts aint that hard, just getting the bolt looking good is the hard part....exposure etc and focus given that it was pretty much pitch black out there when I was taking the pics so no light to focus on or anything like that.
