Love this composition! The only problem is noise reduction (I don't know if you used it, but I see artifacts in the sky on the right)

I was on an airplane once , flying over Chicago and there was a storm like this. It was sooo scary....made me think of that experience. You certainly captured my imagination with this! 8

I can see this as a poster for something. Great!!

Not bad, but I would have liked it better with some kind of foreground, just like fireworks and aurora borealis photos, lighting and clouds by themseleves are not really that interesting to me, they need some kind of foreground or surroundings in my opinion.
