I was chasing lightning when I noticed that this feature on the left of the main storm appeared to be all the way to the ground. By the time I had pulled over and run through the tree line to get a clear shot it was ascending up into the clouds. Subsequent forum discussions have concluded that it is a probable funnel cloud. Not a common sight in Australia.

It certainly looks like a funnel aloft to me. And that looks like a weak wall cloud. Great shot!
