2.97 - "Solid" 

Heading down to my local beach in Perth, I was hoping to capture a decent lightning strike over the ocean. I was having limited success so I aimed down the beach as I liked the composition better. I was firing off 30 second exposures hoping to capture a nice bolt. When this beast of a lightning strike lit up the sky. I waited impatiently for my exposure to finish, worried it would be overexposed. Thankfully it wasn’t! I waited for 2 more hours and there was nothing close to this again.
To me it reminds me of an alien invasion like in Independence Day when they destroy the cities.
Only basic adjustments were needed in Lightroom then converted to black and white.
