pink sky with lightning

Having recently seen an inspirational video on lightning photography, I thought I’d give it a shot when early one evening, the sky began lighting up like crazy! I pulled out my camera and started shooting for just less than 1s exposures with the shutter in continuous mode. Of course, once I started shooting, it seemed that no more lightning flashes wanted to show themselves. However, after 5 minutes of waiting, I was rewarded with a 1.5s lightning strike (see my other shot). After 700 pictures, I was rewarded with this beautiful arc of high voltage electricity!
