   Awesome shot. I love the way the lightning illuminates the clouds! How long was the exposure?

     Thanks Kent!
     Exposure time was 0.8s.
     It was my very first time photographing lightning – and I had been trying to do it in Manual mode (without success).
     I had no torch with me (need to remember to take one when I head out on night shoots) so just fiddled with the dial and ended up on the Night Portrait setting.
     You can see this photo over at my 365 Project page – http://365project.org/tashachawner/365/2011-01-27 – to view the Exif info.
     Cheers,
