They're definitely something I missed while living in Launceston. I did manage to almost get struck by lightning while walking back to my university accommodation while there though. It was only 10 metres away; I could feel the heat from the strike. I don't think I've run faster in my life!

Yesterday's storm had a hit close enough that the flash and bang were as good as simultaneous. We haven't worked out yet which tree got hit.

I think I got lucky with these. The sun had just set and I kept the f-stop down a bit. I was manually triggering the camera using my intervalometer, would love a lightning trigger though.
