That was one fantastic picture Ugur. What a great capture. You should have taken numerous pictures to get this one right? Colors in the sky with the white line is good. and the building silhouttes makes me imagine a scene from batman.

wow, Ugur
this is an amazing shot!
The composition is wonderful: the lightning bolt is practically parallel to the skyline-
I like the deep blue sky.
Congratulations.

Wonderful shot Ugur! Exposure is very good, showing the smaller spikes of the bolt going off in different directions. Also the colour is a lovely blue. Looks like is was an interesting night in Ankara!

Amazing view. You manage to capture the lightning very well and also the shades of colours it created are excellent in this picture. Good definition.
Very well done!

Muhteşem bir resim..Gökyüzündeki ışık sanki gökyüzünün kırılmasını gösteriyor, hiç bulut görünmemesi sanırım en büyük etken.Çok hoş bir etki olmuş.Şehir ışıklarıda öyle güzel ve öyle güzel renklerdeki çok hoşuma gitti.Ellerinize sağlık..

Ugur iyi yakalamışsın, biraz sabır isteyen bir fotoğraf olsa gerek. Gökyüzünün mavisi, şehrin silueti çok güzel. Tavsiye olarak, aşağıda çok parlayan ışıkları söndürmeni önerebilirim.
Tebrikler...

Amazing shot! Exposure is good, I wonder if you used a tripod, the buildings look slightly blurred, possibly due to camera shake? How many shots did you take that missed the lightning?

Bonjour Ugur,
Belle prise de vue. On dirait que l'éclair ne va jamais toucher le sol, qu'il reste en suspend. C'est techniquement très réussi.

Hello, Ugur. This is a very impressive lightning picture. I have read your message to nst and I realize you must be very patient to get such a result, but it pays. What I appreciate here is that the skyline of the city appears to follow the shape of the lightning, which I suppose is due to the light produced by this natural wonder. Thanks for sharing.

The flash is vetical - usually. That's why your photo is very interesting...! I like the light blue bright aroung the flash. The black building at bottom are good frame.
Nice work, bye

superb lightning bolt, ugur! :-)
the structure and branching against the silhouettes of the houses are really cool.
only 1 second exposure time, that´s
unbelievable, you´re a quick shooter!
i´ve been trying to get a decent lightning,
too, but there are not many thunderstorms here.
take care & photos, thor.

Hello Ugur, this is an amazing capture. Not only to get the timing right but also perfect composition. The lightning fills the frame well and almost mimics the shape of the buildings below. Well done.

Perfect timing Ugur. I do not know if your camera has a bulb exposure setting but if you took this picture in regular automatic mode your are the maestro of syncronization. TFS Nikos

Hi Ugar,
I couldn't resist this lovely photo even though it has a gazillion critiques and I'll never be able to say anything new. I don't think I've ever seen a more impressive lightening shot. The city silhouettes and lights make a perfect frame as well.

Hi Ugur, having this view from your window is a luck, but the framing is perfect (and it is not only luck).
I like the way the thunderbolt follows the skyline.
Thank you,

Hi ugur,
Really good shot from a lightning! the Ligthning seems to go around at the end. I wasted so many films to get a lighting picture like this one and didn't came close.
Nice shot
