A shot I took while still trying to reach a close proximity location, unfortunately I didn't realise the camera was slightly zoomed in and out of focus but it demonstrates how active the storm cell was. I moved another 8kilometres closer after this to be

An unusual but awesome shot of an illuminated wall cloud, that has become a personal favorite of mine, maybe it's the artist in me!

Another of the shots I took just before the wall cloud formed. Sometimes these "in-between" shots are just as interesting as the good ones?

A weird shot of a very branched CG. Some of the strikes were quite fast and are difficult to adjust the camera for, as this one was.

Another shot from close proximity. I like the lone tree in the foreground, it adds a nice dimention to the shot.

The best shot of the night by far! This photo made the cover of our local newspaper. The bolts seem alot smaller in this photo than I remember. I was so close to this storm the bolts were a kilometer or so high, from my view point.

One of the closer shots. I couldn't seem to do any wrong with this cell? Confined rain shaft, great cloud structure and extremely active! It was a storm photographers dream!
