About	Thank God digital photos don't cost anything if you don't like them. This would have cost me about a dozen rolls of film + processing.

Randy,

Not really a concern with comets, is it? ;-) This was shot at 70mm but the numbers are a little deceptive. It's about a 60% crop. Either way, that one hit surprisingly close. You can see it going right down through the trees. This was shot from my deck and there were many homes and trees around on higher ground than me. I felt *reasonably* safe and absolutely wouldn't attempt it in the open.

I don't get to attempt lightning shots here in western Oregon on the coast......... usually cloud to cloud here and rarely if ever spectacular ones like yours. This is just fabulous.
I have one question tho........... looking at the lens you used............. isn't this strike gettin just a wee bit too close to home? ;)

Thanks Mitra! You really don't want to know how many totally blank/black images I went through for this! ;-)
