Illuminated in vivid blue and dwarfing neighbouring buildings, the Eiffel Tower's impact on the Paris skyline was already dramatic.

But Mother Nature clearly felt she could lend the scene a little added pizzazz.

This remarkable shot of a forked lightning bolt streaking through the sky behind the 1,063ft iron tower was captured by amateur photographer Bertrand Kulik.

The 31-year-old from Paris - which is known as the City of Light - said: 'The weather was dry and the sky appeared to be completely clear, but suddenly it started to thunder.

'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.'

Teach your children to love knowledge, and to search for wisdom, for wisdom is understanding how little we can ever know.
