There’s a dramatic photo in the Daily Mail this morning. Amateur photographer ­Bertrand Kulik quickly grabbed his camera after a clear Paris sky quickly lit up with a lightning storm. Says Kulik: “I quickly grabbed my ­camera and put it on a tripod by the window in the hope I could get an action picture – but I never thought I would get such a ­magnificent shot.”
