You are brave to be on a beach in the middle of lightning...( Or Crazy :-) ) What we nutty photographers won't do to get the shot! This is awesome James! #2472983

Just awesome image James. A decent lightning shot is a bit of a quest for me, and I've experienced plenty of frustration. Your capture is really inspirational. #2476717

what a super wild capture, James ... I personally don't do well with the explosive sounds of thunder boomers ... it's a reaction from when I was in Vietnam back in the 60's ...

Nice work ... Steve #3908947
