Lightning and Sunsets and Rainbows and Mammatus, Oh My
The storms that appeared in northern New South Wales around the 28-29th of January, 2009 were pretty spectacular. Among their features: lightning, awesome sunset formations, mammatus, a rainbow, crepuscular rays, opportunities for lengthy exposures, clear starry skies surrounding. Among the other photos below, I also took "From the Top" on the 29th, which was featured as a Daily Deviation on DeviantART on the 9th of April, 2009.
Lightning, time machines and photography
Spectacular lightning at Lightning Ridge
This was a nice little storm that passed over Lightinng Ridge in February, 2006. Among other less impressive photos, I managed to capture "Newtown Touchdown" and "Money Shot", the latter of which was printed on the front page of the Ridge News, and in an article in the Daily Telegraph.
