The premise of taking photos of lightning is easy. Wait for lightning, take lots of long exposures, and hope for the best. After about an hour, this is what I ended up with. I got lots of OK shots, and no truly great ones, but this one decent strike stuck out.

Lightning during the day is so hard to get, good job at getting the bolt. I wonder if a little noise reduction would help make it stand out more.

Actually, it has had a bit of noise reduction put on it. I took the photo right before sunset, so there was still plenty of light. It was a longer exposure, around 4 seconds, I believe. There was so much lightning that night I had to try to catch some of it. I got a few other bolts, but this was by far the best.
