Wow... great shot... lucky timing
beautiful...
Amazing! I wish one day I can catch one! :0)
Thank you very much for your comments. It's not that difficult, really. Just set the cam to bulb mode, set the focus on something very far away and then turn to AF off. Then head the lens toward a spot where you see lots of lightning and press the shutter. Exposure in the darkness about 30 sec, just try with different aperture settings. Then just wait, press the shutter again and again and when a bolt comes down when the curtain is open, you've catched it.
