Getting an image of lightning is challenging. There's always a little bit of apprehension as the thunder roars and the wind whips around you, and you wonder if it would be better to run for cover instead of trying to keep your camera and tripod steady. The strikes are such lovely beauty that I find it worth the apprehension.
