The freakish weather in Australia continued on Sunday night when Brisbane became the latest city to be hit by stunning thunderstorms that lit up the night sky.
澳大利亚诡异的天气直到周日晚上仍未消停，而最早被这令人惊讶的雷雨侵袭，被它划破夜空的城市是布里斯班。

Australia has been experiencing freak weather in recent weeks and lightning was seen spectacularly flashing east of Kangaroo Point in Brisbane on Sunday night. This stunning picture is made up of 33 individual lightning strike photos, compiled and flattened in Photoshop.
最近几周澳大利亚的天气一直很骇人。且在周天傍晚，布里斯班袋鼠角的东面能看见道道闪电划过天际。这张绝妙的照片是PS软件将33张单个的闪电照片编辑铺平得到的效果。

注：袋鼠角其实是布里斯班河转弯形成的袋形地带，地势较高，因而成为了一个观看布里斯班及其河流风光的观光点。
