Last week there were thunderstorms at the end of most of the hot days. This was taken early evening as a storm was building – the sunburst was amazing as you could almost reach out and touch it such was the texture of the light.
Sunburst…

Lines and light…
Something a bit different to my general posts – some architecture! Taken at Werribee Park Mansion a week ago, this covered walkway was beautifully lit in the strong afternoon sun. Built between 1874 and 1877, I could imagine these walkways providing relief from the Australian summer afternoons.
Shadow of a gum tree…
At last (at least for us) it has cooled 🙂 I took this yesterday early morning, is of a gum tree shadow on long grass (some may have seen this on my Facebook page). I had to fit myself behind the tree and barbed wire fence so my shadow wasn’t visible….
Curves
A belated Happy New Year! It has been a busy time. I took this a few weeks ago just after the field of hay had been cut and I was struck by the dark curve of uncut grass. Closer inspection revealed it was a creek that has now dried out – the green strip has now vanished completely.
Stark…
Final couple of images from the Pyalong area for the time being. These images were taken with the sky a deep cobalt blue and a very unforgiving light….beautiful 🙂
Between a rock and a harsh place….
Another outing to the Pyalong area in north central Victoria. As I have mentioned in previous posts, I have a deep appreciation of this landscape. This is only the start of summer, but the grasses have already started to dry and its stark beauty has begun – hence taken in harsh afternoon light.
Storm clouds gathering…
Yesterday was a precursor for the stormy weather that came last night and today. I watched this sky literally churning before me yesterday late morning – it was very dramatic, if not a little unsettling. Processed using a red filter and blue toning, once again to bring out the texture of the clouds.
Zebra detail
I don’t normally post this often but there seems to be a problem between WordPress and Facebook so apologies to those that have seen this pic on my Facebook page….Anyway, a detail of a Zebra at Melbourne Zoo – these are actually a very dark brown and cream in colour…
