I watched lightning strike a mountain 5 miles from home. These were taken through my telescope, with the camera mounted to the eyepiece and a cable release.

For perspective, here's a regular picture from in front of the house. I had the scope set up in the driveway.

This ended up being my favorite picture out of the dozens I took.

Very nice, gotta. That's a little too close to your house for comfort! Good thing the trees didn't light up.

Some of y'all are getting good stuff with the telescope action.
