This image of Pretoria, the capital of South Africa, shows the city dwarfed in comparison to a massive lightning strike on the surrounding hills. Lightning photographer Mitchell Krog endured several hours of extreme dust storms and cold winds in excess of 80km/h to obtain this image. “It’s disappointing to note how South African’s are “conserving” power, it seems everyone in South Africa has long forgotten the Eskom Load Shedding debacle of last year and the recent and coming price hikes to electricity” says Mitchell.
