Clouds

#1 Post by Stickbow Hunter » Thu May 02, 2013 1:44 pm

Over Easter and the week following Jude and I did a trip out to my hunting property at Cunnamulla with our daughter, son in-law and our three gorgeous little granddaughters. It was a really special ten days and we all had a ball.

Anyway, while out there we had a few millimetres of rain over night and the next day it was overcast. While out and about we witnessed a cloud formation that I can't ever recall seeing in my fifty years or so going bush. It was really surreal and just amazing to see. On seeing the clouds I stopped the truck and out with the camera immediately. The photos don't convey what it was really like to be there and see it but I hope they give you a bit of an idea of what it looked like. It isn't something I will be forgetting any time soon.

Good photos Jeff. The right time and place - and the right person to appreciate and record the sight.

Yeah mate that was the western edge of it. The photos were taken near the dam where you shot your two billies on your birthday a couple of years ago. It burnt 15,000 acres to the north and east of there, right to the eastern boundary. :sad:
