Benjamin Hams, Thunderstruck Wallaroo (ENTRIES CLOSED - August theme: Weather)

This was one of the most intense thunderstorms I’ve photographed. As the storm rolled across Wallaroo Marina in South Australia, lightning was striking every few seconds, constantly lighting up the night sky. With so much activity, it was hard to know where to point the camera next. I set up overlooking the marina and kept shooting as the storm moved through.
