There was a fabulous thunderstorm over London this afternoon, and after seeing the first lightning strike, I decided to stand on the balcony (getting wet) for about 20 minutes with my camera on a tripod taking absolutly loads of photos in the hope of capturing the lightning.

Only one photo actually caught a lightning strike, and by pure luck - I think it is also a very dramatic photo.

There is a hi-res version on my Flickr account - http://www.flickr.com/photos/ianvisits/707128390/
