Great pictures but the resolution sucks =(
That's too bad they would have made great desktop backgrounds.

volcanic ash is highly ionized, which causes a shitton of "static lightning"

I have a friend stuck in Athens, she's trying to get back to London.

Also, I've been to Iceland. Yes I try and work that into conversations whenever possible. 8)

And lightning of all sorts of colors because of the mineral content too. Sand storms can have purple lightning sometimes.

Lightning photos are so hard. I tried shooting some at home a few years ago and it was frustrating. The only thing I could think of to do was to take long exposures over and over, hoping to catch a few strikes.

I think you need to have a camera specialized in it? Thanks Vanamar for the Hi-res find :D

You can take lightning pics with any camera. You just have to focus to infinity. There are lots of guides on how to shoot lightning.
