Is this for real?

Probably time lapse. Those towers probably attract a lot of lightning.
 
Very long shutter speed. You can tell by the ground lights "blooming".



And photoshop.
 
I'd say multiple long exposure shots superimposed together. No way could you capture that many strikes in a few minutes time. Anything longer then a few minutes, even at night, would overexpose even the dim lights. They could have used filters to get the multiple colors.
 
Yes, most likely they used software to combine the shots, and could have adjust the colors also.
 
It looks like a astronomy site. The options to do this are:
Several pictures overlaid using photoshop, using special color filters. Exposures up to 60 minutes per color are not unusual for astro photos.
Most likely a long exposure, or several short and each stike colored in photoshop.
 
I actually did something pretty similar a while back, though less complex. Took multiple shots with filters on, then superimposed each image on the other in software. Result was much like that.

I say several shots combined together. A 60 minute exposure would over expose the picture with the lights. Astronomical photos are taken in space, which is a lot darker then terrestrial shots.
