Here's some lightning shots from central Indiana tonight. First time using my brand new Phottix Mega Cleon remote...works great! All shots with the 50D and 17-55 2.8 IS.

That last one is cool! :shock: The silhouettes help to make an more interesting image. The two first lightnings are cool to, but there's too little going on in the foreground.

Thanks for the comments! I like the perspective showing the whole storm on the first one. The last one I did crop down to show more of the foreground relative to the sky. I'll try cropping the first two and see how they look.
