absolutely amazing shot! if you don't mind my asking: how many exposures did you take until this shot 'happened'? I remember taking lightning shots a year ago, and it took me about 400 exposures to get 10 that worked...

Thanks, I managed to get 10 in prior to it starting to rain heavy. 2 were keepers. That being said, I do a lot long exposure work, so I basically knew what I was doing. It is trail and error, but what I wanted was to capture many strikes. I exposed for the ambient which was a 5min 20 sec exposure, the let it go. If there were strikes the were extremely bright that I thought would over expose the image I'd stop. I was fairly happy with the result.

hm, exposing for the ambient light and then stopping when too bright strikes hit is a smart idea (should have come up with that myself :-)) thanks for the advice!
