Fork lightening from Heaven, and quite alot in this photo. Keep yourself well protected from harm so we can see more of your photo's. Thankyou for sharing.

Thanks so much Karen, Carol, Beverly, Jas, Alex, and Lorraine for looking at my photo and leaving your wonderful comments. Hey Karen you take the photos the same with a digital. Set your focus to manual and at infinity, ISO 100 or 200, then set your shutter speed from 4 seconds to even 10 seconds, I let the camera pick the aperture. Then keep taking photos until you luck out and the lightning goes off when the shutter is open.

A beautiful capture, most of our lighting comes here with heavy down pours.

WOW!! what a great shot Alan,I always heard that lightning would never hurt you as long as you saw it.Maybe you don't see it if it hits you,huh? LOL

Great shot of the lightning Alan! You are lucky to have a nice clear view, without obstructions. I like the way it seems to 'cut' through the cloud to finally find the earth.

Beautiful image Alan. That is something I don't get to see or photo living here in the mountains.

I still haven't figured out how to capture lightning with a digital camera. I knew how with my slr cameras. This is a gorgeous display.
