Hi Joseph, a spectacular moment well captured. I like how the light changes from left to right and that circulat antenna and the crosses of the church. TFS, Alex

Im sorry but this photo is faaaaar from real!
The lightning wouldn't be coming from that part of the cloud for a start, and even if lightning had come from that part of the cloud, it would look nothing like what this looks like. Also there are patches around the lightning that are glowing that you only get from very bright lightning, but the lightning is soooo dim and at f5.6 (and considering how close it is) it would be very bright indeed.
On top of everything else there is a lot of stratiform clouds in this photo which means that this probably isn't even a thundercloud anyway, and even if it idid manage to produce some lightning, it would be so infrequent.
Im sorry to be so blunt but i am a storm chaser and a lightning photographer and i really don't like it when people try and "create" lightning photos and then try to pass it off as real :-(
