I was only a matter of time till we encountered our first storm of the season. Lots of wind made this one relatively short lived. There was plenty of lightning which luckily kept a safe distance away, not far enough for one of our little cavalier puppies.
Another day, another storm in Brisbane. I am getting tired of racing around unplugging all of my equipment everytime a storm approaches. So much so, I have decided to move my Zimbra Mail server to Google Apps to save me having to worry about it any longer. That will be one less thing to unplug.
Anyway, back to the photo.
This storm approached us very fast. I had to run to get my camera before it passed. Lots of wind and some small hail. I thought the large trees across the road might have been knocked down, but they are still standing today.
This panorama consists of 16 photographs and comes in at over 2GB in a merged tif file. I am glad I have some extra ram in my mac now.
I setup the tripod and caught a few photographs of the storm approaching this evening and thought I would put them together in a slideshow. No where near as many lightning strikes as previous storms but still turned out ok. Let me know what you think.
I spotted a storm front moving over once again and thought I would grab the camera and take some snaps. Ended up shooting a panorama of the front passing over.
