Forking Marvellous

We had another storm roll in this evening and after a little success a few days ago I thought I'd try
again, with this being the result. There were numerous strikes and I captured about a dozen, all from
my deck, with this being the most impressive!!!
The shot from the other night...................

My favourite subject =) Hopefully this year will be better lightning year here in Finland... feel free to check my lightnings at my gallery.
This photos look good cos it has those buildings (windows) on photos too and not just the lightnings.

Fantastic! I love the way the shape of the lightning mirrors the line of houses, and how it's lit up the underside of the cloud. Great timing!

Fantastic Shot.
I've been trying to capture a shot like this
for awhile, but our storms just haven't produced
anything close to this, or close enough to us to take.
