Yes quite an old shot, I took it an half year ago but I thought I should share it because of the unusual form for a thunderbolt. I haven't cropped it, this is how my camera captured it but scaled down. Larger (but unprocessed) resolution available upon request.
Comments are highly appreciated
Another of my lightning shots from exactly the same day:

Many thanks. I had to wait many months till we got the first thunderstorm after I bought my first digital camera. Patience is indispensable for lightning shots. Since moving to Aachen (about a half year ago), I haven't had a storm worth taking photos of :/ I would really like to take more such shots but I don't get enough possibilities xD
maybe I would use a little more contrast, but it is a matter of taste!
