Very nice! What camera are those from?

Excellent shots. I am jealous of the lightning shots, I have never managed to get any and it's something that drives me nuts

Question: Are the colors in the first one accurate and how long was the exposure? I'm just trying to imagine what kind of light could create those colors.

Thanks very much for all the comments, I really appreciate them.

I use a canon 40D and a 17-40mm wide angle lens.

Thanks, yes the colours are accurate, while i have increased contrast it merely strengthens the colours and the light is momments before the sun sets. The exposure was 10 seconds.
