Hi Mike,

 

Great shot. Forgive me for asking, but looking at the lights, the mountains and the layout, it looks a hell of a lot like Nelspruit, South Africa. Thanks for sharing.

Andreas- Thank you, it's actually taken from Northcliff hill in North Western Johannesburg, looking towards the Magaliesberg Mountains. It's one of the highest lightning strike areas in Africa because of the dolomitic rocks combined with the altitude, 6,000ft above sea level.

 

Virgil & Stuart- Thank you.
