We have recently had lots of storms in Los Alamos. This was taken from my front yard.
Nikon 8400, 30 sec at f4, dark frame subtraction.

That's an amazing image, Momo. I'm impressed the little P&S did so well on a long exposure.

Love the clarity of colors in this shot. Not purple-tinged like a lot of lightning shots - just silhouettes and angry grey clouds. :toast:
