It's not easy as I had to wait for the right timing and I had it on my tripod plus my remote. There are several that I had it on Flickr. when it started to lightening around my home but I didn't like the tree covers, then decide go over to the school house. Here is mine photo: http://www.flickr.com/photos/7363677@N04/6018523620/ This one was taken up the front porch as I was holding the camera between my legs no tripod at this one.... http://www.flickr.com/photos/7363677@N04/5998257130/ I have mine taken a month ago when we had a bad storm and I decide to go for a ride that way I can take a better photo of the lightening.

The bulb setting is a great idea to get it done just after the bolt, we are expecting storms in Pakistan, with lightening soon, I will share if get some thing, thanks again.

Last night in the south (USA) we had the worst lightening storm I have ever seen in my 51 years! I have never seen such constant lightening before. And so blinding! Terribly scary. I tried to get pics but they were all overexposed. So as we are supposed to have another storm tonight I have my camera setting all set and ready to go.

It notices changes in light and snaps a photo. Living in Miami at the time it worked real good and cost about 30bucks parts. I moved north and haven’t had a opportunity to use it :-( Another thing you can do is what I did; I built a photodiode lightning trigger based on a computer chip that I wired to my remote camera cord.
