Pretty spectacular. I esepecially like number 1. Also, please don't take this the wrong way, but they almost look photoshoped. I mean, the lighting is huge, numerous, and seemingly striking in a town. Very impressive nevertheless.

I live in wisconsin too, I wish we would have had a storm like that here!!

top shots but the sky in #4 has it for me

Well done, the buildings in the last 3 pictures takes them over the edge, adds that little extra.

Florian · Oct 2, 2006

Wow, great pictures! How did you capture the right moment to push the release-button?

JTHphoto · Oct 2, 2006

wow, these are awesome... i'd have been impressed with any ONE of them, muchless a series full of awesome lightning shots. I agree with John on the last 3, nice comps and outstanding job capturing these shots.

care to share your technique/settings?

Hyperion · Oct 2, 2006

Those shots are incredible. I wish we had weather like that here.

Uh-oh. Wxnut... you are such a long time member, and you still post photos with no spaces between the individual pic?!? Ts-ts-ts.
I feel I need to go into your initial post and edit in those missing spaces, your pics all run one into the other.....

But that does not mean I am in any way less fascinated by your photos.
The one with the tiny lightning and the loads of rain (could that be the fourth? Grrr, I think I'll have to edit in numbers, too :irked:
