Wow!!!! Amazing capture. I've shot hundreds of exposures but only captured a few bolts. Think I hear a GAS attack coming ... may want to try one of those triggers. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks, fbeaston:
I've used various approaches --the bulb technique, the interval technique and a trigger. The trigger (used in this shot) is the most reliable but I have good, sometimes great, results from all. I use an AEO trigger --it's the first brand I tried and I've never had reason to change. Lightning bolts, like grizzly bears and sharks are unpredictable. Treat them with respect and only get involved with care.
