Sounds good to me Simon!....Winter/Spring/Winter/Spring/Summer/Winter/Spring again....anything but boring for sure, & thats just September! ....... (p.s. Thanks Tez, hopefully we'll see some great shots in there) ....... (p.s.s. Really like the way you compose your shots Micheal, almost imagined a close ufo encounter in the (macadamia?) plantation. )

Hey Sim, finally something to shoot - or more accurately time to get out and take some pics. This low drenching Mt Gambier left us with next to nothing apart from some showers over the northern burbs. Down our way, scattered convection and great colours with a short return to winter...

Cheers,
Tim

Tim, great photos It looks lovely down your way. I especially like the 1st & 3rd photos.

Jules

Cheers mate :cheers: - any rain yet up your way?

Not a drop since May. We'll see what tomorrow brings. Glenn said he's going to spray paint the houseyard green, at least then the rabbits might leave my plants alone
I might just get a winter storm yet

Jules

& what type of plants might they be Jules?

Here is yesterday's sunset, we had a few clearing edges create this superb display in the Illawarra.

Stephen :cheers:

Any plant that's still got a bit of green.
But they weren't too happy about the 410 being fired at them last night

Jules

Great photos Stephen, no clouds here to give any spectacular sunsets.

Jules

Thanx Jules

great shots tim,jules,blizzard and stephen (very interesting sunset shot). not really weather but this fellow was lurking around the yard today. it was abit dark so i didnt want to spook it with the flash so i shot at a high iso thus the grain. i think it has gone now. hopefully.

Stay away from him Micheal, he looks like he's up to no good!....Incredible sunset Stephen!....Hope you get some rain Jules!.... This is my last Winter post here & tonights Sunset =(Completed 12 shot Album)

Michael, i can think of better things to shoot it with than ISO!!
Seriously, great photo!! Either you have a lot of zoom or a lot of courage!!(or madness )
Great photos everyone, well done.

nah no zoom, shot it with 28-100mm lens. more stupidity then courage thats for sure.

Michael that is one heck of a brilliant photo

Dave, we didn't get a drop of rain but while we were in town tonight it rained quite heavy for about 15 minutes in there.

Jules

Dont worry Jules, i reckon it wont be long and i will be telling everyone how dry it is and you will be posting green grass pictures with butt-kicking thunderstorms in it!!
Here is a photo i took of the cathedral at mt buffalo on the weekend!!

One of the best things about the snow...there is no snakes!!lol

Nicely Done Mr Alexander Sir
Was not that long ago I was up there. Fantastic countryside you live in and around.
Michael, ya gotta love snakes, menacing looking buggers, but usually more scared of you than you are of them..
Cheers,
Tim
BTW Robbie, that sat image of the SE corner of OZ was amazing!

Tried to frighten away a King Brown once but he just turned around & give me the evil unloving reptilian eye,& refused to move, so i said, 'OOOH! O.K. mate, i'm goin, & i did!....see ya in Spring.

This was taken on the same day as Robbie at nearly the same spot


Heather

Great stuff Heather, turned out really well. Its a petty that resort has now closed for the season with so much snow on the ground!!
