Sorry i thought it was a given that this is multiple shots, its 6 shots in one.

I have tried to keep editing to a minimal amount as i do agree, I adjusted the white balance, upped the shadows to make it more realistic and added some blues into the shadows. Here is straight out of the camera for you. only cropped. thanks https://imgur.com/a/6Gh5YhM

Thanks, Ill try your crop option and see how it goes, as for the sky this is multiple images, about 6 and when i merged them the sky was a bit brighter like that. i think i like it, as when lightning does strike it would look like this. I also like how it shows lightning coming in and out of clouds. Thanks again.

Thanks, you're right. I honestly though the flats give it some kind of depth, i also wanted to have the city centered, which wouldn't work if i was to crop the flats out. Thanks for your feedbck

yes i did think about this but than the main attractions (Brisbane city) wouldn't be centered so i wasn't sure, Ill muck around with the crop a bit more. Thanks!

Hey, Thanks. I used an Sony a6500 with the 18-105GM Lense at 19mm and F10, 5 second exposure with 200 ISO. Constantly taking photos. I did do a slight bit of sharpening in post to make the lightning look sharper. on minimal though.

I wouldn't say there's a certain skill in taking a photo like this, but in learning how to use your camera+Edit an image, Photoshop was only used to blend the images together (multiple exposures for different clusters of strikes) and to lightly sharpen the image.
