Lightning Photo

I took this photo while in Daytona Beach back in June during a thunderstorm.

Canon Rebel XSi on a tripod, 8 sec exposure. Adjusted contrast / saturation a bit.

What an amazing shot!

That's sweet. Think I could nab a full-sized image? I'd like to add it to my collection. Here's one I took in a 4-shot burst.

No, I was using the 2 second timer... which sucked cause on many occasions a lightning would hit while the timer was on. A remote would have been perfect, maybe I should invest on one
