217/365 by Jeff Cagle.
It would have been totally worth it to get hit for this photo.

Other than a slight crop to 5x7, this is straight out of the camera.

Thanks everyone! Actually, sfmoe, I did use a remote flash pointed toward me for this shot, so that's what is lighting me up.

What was your iso and shutter set at for this? I could only imagine how many shots you must have tried to nail this.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing that information. Just shows how powerful the lightning was to get such a clean image at night with an ISO of 100.
