[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Welcome all visitors,

lightening hits the ground somewhere in north from my hometown- Mragowo, Poland.

Beauty of thunderstorms will never make me stop watching them, despite of existing danger. This picture was made from window in my flat. The best shots of lightening can be taken when the storm is still far and it's not raining yet- air is clear and view on gigantic cumulonimbus cloud are the best.

Picture was cropped from original size, some noise reduction in Neat Image, then just framed, resized and taht's it.

I hope You like it,
thank You for any comments.

Have a nice day!

Adrian,
This is one of the better lightning picture I've seen in a while. Nice sharp image and your timing was perfect. Well done.
Regards,
Kevin

A great capture. I like that you composed the image so that we may see the clouds. We had a big storm two days ago and while I tried to get a nice lightning shot, I was unsuccessful.
Great work!

Hello Adrian
Excellent timing, as it is not all that easy to get lighting when it hits.
Very sharp with the cloud being lit up in such a colour.
Good shot
Dot

Hi Adrian,

Superb shot!! Great timing on the lightening strike. You have really captured the power of the lightening. I would send a copy to your local weather forcaster... they would love it!

thanks for sharing, Lisa
