It does strike twice

Nearly got one of my bucket list shots today. We don't get many lightning storms, definately none in the right spot for me to take any decent shots. On the way home today this storm hit but was nearly over by the time I got home. Was only able to get a couple of shots before it finished.
Was surprised to see it striking repeatedly 3 times at roughly the same spot.
I say nearly got my shot because I would have loved a better foreground. Oh well, there is always a next time, regardless of how rare that is.

I heard the thunder and saw the lightning through the window.... but stupid me... I didnt think to pick up the camera. This is a fabulous shot Abhijit. The foreground doesnt matter... thats not what my eye is drawn to.... that lighting - just fabulous

Great shot. I suppose a lightning strike on the Opera House or Harbour Bridge would satisfy your bucket list :) It's on mine too and we don't get many thunder storms here either.
