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.

SUPPORT THIS WEBSITE

This website has been running now for over a decade, and while advertising revenue contributes to funding the website, it doesn't cover the costs. That is why I have set up a facility with DonorBox where you can contribute to the costs of the website and time invested in writing and research for the news articles.

It's very similar to the way The Guardian and many smaller websites are now seeking to generate an income in the face of rising costs and declining advertising.

Whether it's a one-off donation or a regular giver, every additional support goes a long way to covering the running costs of this website, and keeping you regularly topped up doses of Londony news and facts.

If you like what you read on here, then please support the website here.

Thank you

    Hi Ian,

    You may know me from Digg – I am a fan of your work. I couldn’t find your e-mail address on this blog so I’m attempting to contact you this way.

    Do you use pownce or want an invite?

    Did it ever occur to you that the reason why you get ZERO comments ever is because no one cares about your silly diary?

    I think you cared enough to post that message though.

    Thanks
