Hi Guys,

This year in the NT seems very slow, with regard to the storms and great lightning shows, however last night there was a storm over the Darwin area and this was captured some 17 kilometers distance from Berrimah.

I was only able to capture a single strike at 2.30am Sat morning

The signs of good things to come. ;) hope you like it

Thanks H, usually they strike straight down, but that night most were striking horizontal, very impressive to watch.

Wow, wonderful shot you've got there. I always enjoy a good thunderstorm.
Though we had some pretty serious weather here in Auckland just the other day. Two tornadoes left 3 dead and some 150 homes uninhabitable :eyepop:
