nice, thanks for posting.  Clear borders to the stroke, was this from  a web cam or you had a regular camera set up to photo?

it was a gopro hero 5 black,  i put out on my deck, set to night lapse , 1 sec shot gopro color settings in auto.all i did to photo was crop street light out on the right side of photo. i really need a good weather cam, that will shoot at night but the funds are not there for it,lol i was lucky to get this one because i won it on a cruz this summer from the casino on the ship.

lol it was about the same time. hit in the pastor about 100 yards from the house, made the power flicker and i almost need some new huggies needless to say i retreated to the house and let the cam do its thing
