Lightning photos captured and sent to FOX6 WBRC-TV by a loyal viewer in the pre-dawn hours of March 15, 2008 in Birmingham, Alabama.
We lost the electricity that night and resorted to taking shots of lightning, little I knew I would get some of the most impressive ones I've ever taken.
This one was sooo bright it did not matter what exposure I would have used... close call.
By far this was the brightest I have ever seen. It was ... huge.
Solo Lightning display at R.A.F Wattisham held on the day 111 Squadron disbanded with the Lightning.
Pilot was that years Lightning Display pilot but I can't remember his name. I do recall he was based at R.A.F Coltishall and his display just blew you away !

Captured this in 2006 during a thunderstorm in my backyard. Colors are accurate, I've never seen the sky like this before. Handheld Canon Digital Rebel (300D), f/3.5, 1/400 sec, ISO 1600. Lucky catch!
A few years ago, Martine and I were driving home through a lightning storm. The lightning was so intense we pulled over to try to get a photo of it, each with our terrible phone cameras. (My phone, a Motorola v710, is notorious for having the worst camera in the history of phones.)
Anyway, we beat the odds and got some photos. Better yet, we each got a shot of the same lightning bolt!
These were both hand-held, mine on the left, hers on the right.
