I disagree...while I understand the awesomeness of catching the lightning etc etc, I would rather have the second picture hanging in my office. Both are quality, but I prefer the second one.

You and me both. Hoping the summer heat lightning produces something to shoot.


I really like the b/w edit. Gives it more of that eerie look to it. I have to agree, as much as I like the first, the second one is great!

I think they're both good, the second one is nice but the first one has lightning and people are always impressed with how "quick" you were to catch the lightning bolt.

I've been waiting for a good lightning storm to get some shots like this.

I haven't been happy with what I have tried to catch here in tampa. I seemed to have better luck down in bradenton.

yeah, as i was editing them, i really didnt like the colors but i loved the contrast between light and dark sections of the cloud. when in doubt, go for black and white insta-art. works everytime.
