Some old ones from the film days, scanned from 6x6 film.
These were taken before the digital age on film with a Rolleiflex medium format camera, a classical twin lens German made camera. I took the lightning picture about 30 years ago, nothing special, except lightning occurs only once every few years around here. I had the camera sitting on my patio table and kept the lens open. My wife is scared of lightning, she still has nightmares from a thunder storm we experienced while leaving the Grand Canyon North Rim, and a cow got struck right in front of us.
If anyone does them better, I don't know who. Spectacular and amazing as always.

Thank you very much for your gracious comment Randy.
The more I look at these photos the more I like them. In experienced hands film did capture great detail. Of course, the creative eye of the photographer made the difference then and makes the difference in today's digital world. Again, thanks for sharing these amazing works of art.
