nice, what shutter speed and F did you use?

Thanks. Shutter speed 0.62sec, F/8. This was the longest shutter speed I could get (at ISO 64), so I took over 300 shots using the burst mode on my camera. Got 3 with lightening strikes in, only 1 that I am happy with (this 1).

it's a very futuristic piece, i like that, the way u get the feel right away once u take a look at it. I had to full-view to see your worksmanship better. I think u did alright, however, i think you were going for a slightly dramatic idea with the lighting but the clouds don't really complement it. The clouds right now just look dull and moody, u should try for something more domineering and bold.

Thanks for the comment. I agree that the sky might look better if it was dodged and burned. I did try to do this, but it just looked too fake, so I left it as it was. Thanks.

WOW!!! I adore lightening, I would love to catch it on camera. I've managed webcam before by filming but it wasn't a great angle, most of the lightening was cut off by houses. But as well the colours in this photo make it even more fascinating!

wow great work! :) I really like the colours on the bridge as well as the lightening itself. One slight crit is the horizon/water level is slightly off horizontal, not hugely noticable due to the dramatic nature and central compostion of the shot. When ever I drive over its allways raining or foggy.

I may head down there sometime when the weather pics up, its a fantastic piece of civil architecture :)
