Amazing images of lightning strike above the Wallace Monument
- 2 years ago
An amateur photographer captured this amazing shot of the moment a lightning strike hit above the Wallace Monument.
Thomas Lamont, 33, snapped the picture at 8.45pm last night (Sun) as the thunder and lightning began.
IT worker Thomas, from Falkirk, was standing in a field near the monument, in Stirling, hoping to capture drone footage of the storm.
He began to take the drone down as the storm approached - but luckily managed to capture the strike as it appeared above the monument.
Thomas said: “I love thunder and lightning storms so when I knew it was coming I planned to go out and checked it would be safe to take the drone
