BRYN DE KOCKS from Bryn de Kocks Photography photographed this stunning “sunset last night from Strand beach. A rich red glow on the horizon with a single lightning strike over the ocean”… and then…

He captured these images later of the “rather uncommon Cape Town thunderstorm” over False Bay, from Kogelbaai.

Earlier in the evening, CATERINA TOFFOLI had captured this stormy shot in Noordhoek…
