Fire!!!

not a close shot but ...Boom ....Lightning strike caused a fire a few roads down ....if you strain hard enough you can see the smoke
Wow - a few roads down is too close for comfort in my opinion - nicely captured!

Amazing how destructive lightning really is.

Some years back, I was out in my car port during a huge storm (I was opening my side gate to let the water through) when we had a lightning strike metres from my home! I could smell and feel it coming but didn't get inside fast enough! I almost went deaf because of it and had major headaches for days afterwards... it was horrible.

Easy to see the smoke and the lights of the vehicle which is probably a fire engine? Good for you for this photo!
