That's awesome!
I keep trying to capture the lightning during the big thunderstorms we get here, mine are epic failures.

Yep - Great capture and it's somewhat refreshing to see an image that was taken with (Nikon D300s with 60mm f/2.8 lens on the following settings: Aperture: F/10, Shutterspeed: 5 seconds, ISO: 200) normal kit and settings.
