Not sure why the other lightning looks good and that spot is so overexposed. Was there a lot of intercloud lightning going on there with a long shutter? -Eric

pepzman Member  40 posts Joined Apr 2009 Location: Omaha, NE More info | I like them both.... granted i like the second one best but only because the first one is so bright in the one spot. I would have been happy to shoot either of them. Any one care to share some advice for shooting lighting? I have tried several times and never had any luck. Dave
