Several filters actually, Mark.
Thinking you meant lightning instead of lighting there? If yes, then yes ... lol I built the lightning on a separate layer with Alien Skin Xenofex 2. Well, more precisely applied the Lightning filter four times with random bursts to achieve the look I was after.
If you meant lighting, nope, what you see is what was there besides the lightning and a portion of the sky. The sky and rainbows were built on an additional layer with Kai Power Tools 6's SkyEffects and then blended with the existing skyline (Overlay mode at about 65%).
Additional filters were also added in the post-processing, including GrainSurgery at around 30% then the effect faded to taste and a bit of LucisArt also faded to taste.
Here's a look at the before and after images ...
