Well done again Christo Smith Photography with this awesome composite of lightning images over Durban. The summer lightning storms have arrived.
A thrilling display of lightning over Durban.
This evening an incredible thunderstorm came over Durban. The guys at the Radisson kindly let me use the view of their penthouse suite to take photos of the storm.
When I got there, the storm was rolling in from the distance. You could see the approaching strikes coming in over Durban, creeping closer, and you could hear the faraway thunder echoing over Durban, competing with the roar of the angry ocean below. You could also see the rain drawing in like a blanket over the city. Suddenly the storm was upon us and the wind and rain became too much and I had to retreat indoors.
When the rain started subsiding, I managed to capture the photo that I shared here. I'll share the other photos that I captured another time.
I hope that you like this photo.
This is a composite image created from some of the images that I captured, which have then been overlayed to create a single image showcasing the strikes that I managed to capture.
South Africa has the most incredible beauty, and her storms are amazing. Keep looking for the beauty. It's there...
I am Proudly South African.
