Nice pic! I never see lightning like that, just flashes through the clouds!

There was a lightning storm over Portsmouth last night too! Was this the same one Matt, where do you live?

Was it a very quick finger or time lapse ???

It's a brilliant photo but it's difficult to imagine that amount of electrical discharge in the timeframe of a normal shutter openning.
