Thanks, Len

E-mail you soon. Bob

Arizona sure is the place for terrific lightning. Thanks for sharing a dramatic moment.

Colorado also gets some serious lightning.

That would make an AWESOME wallpaper.

Do you use a remote that is triggered by flashes to take so many lightning shots? Or are you just lucky? What is your secret? I would say long exposures, however there is no movement to things that would indicate a long exposure..

Well, I don't use IE so I can't help you set the pic for wallpaper.......
In NutScrape, all you do is right click on the pic and select 'set walpaper'......too easy!!!

I think I left the shutter open for about 15 secs. When a storm is at the right point electrically there will dozens of flashes per minute. Bob
