Lightning 3

2am, my bedroom turned into a strobe light for nature's light show. I have a bird screaming "Mama Sue!! ALL DONE!" which is African Grey Speak for something scary is going on. A cat who is trying to hide in a pillow case... with a pillow. And I, somehow functioning without coffee, stumble out of bed and manage to brain enough power to grab the camera and the 50mm. Fuzzy frog slippers and all, I'm out there (I'm safe, storm had moved off into the distance and I'm under a covered patio) fumbling around and somehow caught this. 1/15, 4.0, 200 ISO. Canon 80D. Any suggestions on better settings for lightning.... you know, for when I'm functioning on more brain power.
