These were from a local. G1SAA
the first picture shows a leader coming up from the ground to the
tower and the second a bolt coming down to meet it .
Note these were taken from a house upper floor so there was a roof and chimney above the height of the mast and there are trees nearby. The tower is down... but still a strike.
Lightning is scary stuff with antennas and rigs. Direct strikes rare but they DO happen.
