Forked Lightning

I can't go too many weeks without posting a lightning shot for Skywatch Friday, so here's one I rather liked.
And there's lots more still to come!

    Hope you will give us some tips about achieving these amazing shots. I'm guessing a tripod and lots of patience! So exciting to view.

    Oh my of all the photographers here in SWF you are the only one that took lightning shots, for that I am thankful because I don't have the nerve to take this shots. We don't have that much lightning here in MI ^_^ Happy weekend and thanks for sharing. ^_^

    Wow, 3 at the same time -the rumble must have been very loud!
    One time in Colorado the lightning kept several times hitting next to the road we were on -kind of scary!

    Wonderful shot, may I ask what kind of camera you have. I doubt I would be able to catch lightning with mine, I can't even get a decent dusk shot.
