Spectacular footage of lightning over Sydney Opera House during a storm that postponed the 2018 Invictus Games opening ceremony.

The Invictus Games is an event organised for wounded armed services personnel and veterans, and was officially opened by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle on Saturday.

"I was standing in the rain and taping opera house even before lightning started shooting in that direction," said the filmer. "Finally got a shot I was looking for."
