I like 'em all, and agree with burning down that window light to eliminate a slight distraction.
I believe this is the first time I've seen lightning shots in b&w. I'm not sure I'm sold on it. What kind of colors were you getting? It's been my experience that the colors around the bolts are a nice purple or some such. Can you poste a color version of one?

Well, there's not a great deal of difference between the two, but I do prefer the color version.
The bolts stand out a bit better and there's a bit less haloing on the horizon line with that version, as well.

I like the color version of this also.

Color for me. The B&W is nice too but the color really sets off the lightning. Nice work!

Like the pano shot and the placement of the lightning.

In #1, you might burn the window of the mobile home.
