Kyle,
Those are some fantastic lightning shots! I've tried and tried, and have never been that successful. What's your secret?

Luck! Honestly.
Back in May, we had some terrible storms here in Texas. As a matter of fact, this very storm produced a tornado 5 miles from here in the next town over. After feeling like it was safe, I walked out and saw this awesome display of lightning. I took the camera out on the metal tripod (smart eeh?) and pointed towards the horizon, thankfully there was enough light to get the camera focused, i had a 30 second exposure set up and pressed the button. I've tried to repeat it during the last storm, but no luck!
