Aussie dust storm

[spear]

You may have seen some TV coverage a couple of weeks ago of a massive dust storm that swept across Australia and turned Sydney a deep red colour. This is a shot a mate sent me of the storm front as it passed through Broken Hill. Broken Hill is in the very west of my State and close to the 'epicentre' of the storm where it originated in central South Australia. The last I heard the dust was settling on the north island of New Zealand.

Yeah I did see the news about that. Didn't look like any fun to be in. So you didn't get any of that by you then?

Reminiscent of the Dustbowl! Didn't they show something similar on the news just the other day from around New Mexico or so??

 

The place that picture is taken from 'd be the only place to experience that from, wouldn't care to be in it!

What an awesome shot!!! Kind of glad we're seeing it in a pic, and not actually there!

Notice the nest and holes in filter ! Not hard to do, just time consuming. Hung a new E3 on the rear and watched Squidbilly episodes on laptop while doing this.
