Thanks very much Tyler!, I'm glad you liked those. I have only been into photographing storms since the Summer of 2007 so I'm still learning from the more experienced imagers and chasers like yourself, and of course the infamous Mike H who is inspiring to everyone interested in this sort of thing. This was the best and 'meanest' shelf I have seen from N. Ireland since I began. I have an account on my site from this day but when I looked at it recently I was annoyed with myself for only including a small selection of images from that day. I had forgotten there was so many in my file. I used a 58mm wide angle conversion lens attached to my standard 28mm wide for those shots. The field of view is about 120 degrees or more so it was a pretty big structure. John McConnell got  a very interesting image of this same shelf much later when it stopped producing lightning. I have the image in my collection and will post it up later (I'm sure John won't mind). I would love your opinion in it because of the strange structure on it's leading edge which I cannot ID. Cheers.
