Nikon D80 with 12 – 24mm set to 24mm. WB set to Auto (processed later in camera RAW and set to 3900k). f/5.6, shutter set to bulb, used a remote and fired for 13 sec. ISO 100.

WOW!!! what a shot!

Awesome capture!

Easily the best “crawler” I have seen. I take my hat off to you…

Great capture! Timing and opportunity well taken!

am i allowed to say YOU BASTAGE! you have created a timeless image here that to my mind at least conjours up the sense of static electricity and i can FEEL that when i look at this….the violet tones are just a superb addition to the crawler lightning….. this is really quite masterful. I am jealous beyond belief…... i bet that was a real humdinger of a storm….. and i bet you KNEW it was going to be a beauty when you took it…...

Bravo Mr.

This the MOST AMAZING Lightning shot I’ve ever seen! Superb capture.

Great shot, Craig. Excellent cloud detail, wonderful color and the crawler really filled the frame perfectly. Awesome capture!
