The buildings are very blurry as it was handheld 15 sec exposure ( i think i held my breath for 10 out of those ) but i'm glad i caught the lightning.. in fact 2 of them..

and i dont even have shutter lock on my cam.. this is sheer luck..

hope you like them..

Hand held for 15 seconds. Wow you must have gone asleep, mine would have been all over the place. lol... At least you got the lightning which is always a nice thing. Well done mate. You did something that I have never done. You captured the lightning.

Lucky or not, the lightening is just great harsh. NIce work my friend.

Harsh, that is a cool photo! I haven't dared holding my camera that long, not even for a second exposure. I have poor hand control that is why I try to bring my tripod with me most of the time! The blur adds an effect to the lightning. I agree. Try PP, see what can come out of it!

Very cool shot! It almost feels as if the lightning is causing the world to shutter!
