Aug 24, 2013 Larkspur Lightning - Up Close

Was getting ready for bed and saw some lightning outside; so I scoped the situation out and determined it was a porch chase night!  Grabbed the camera and did 13 second exposures, F6.3, ISO 200 with my 10-22mm Wide Angle lens.  The storm was the only thing in the whole Front Range and was coming up from the south, moving nearly directly north.  Of course, I was in the safety of my own house, but the camera was able to capture a few good bolts up close!
