November is storm season in Queensland and we’ve had a couple of loud and scary ones but thankfully the worst of them missed our place (touch wood). As a twenty something loving in Newcastle I discovered how much I loved a good storm when staying with family near the beach. From their house I watched in awe as the clouds rolled in and the light changed creating an eery atmosphere before the skies opened and the lightning let loose. It was magic.
There were pockets of storm action Sunday afternoon, mainly to the north of us so we got very little rain and only a few rumbles of thunder. We did however see some amazing cloud formations and fantastic light as we strolled around a local sports field. Bundy could not have cared less about any of it, he was too busy following random scent trails. With only my iPhone at hand I tried to capture the amazing nature of the clouds and light using the Lightoom mobile app and my phone’s native camera app. The images are a little dark, more post-processing required or perhaps there are better apps for capturing these types of scenes on a smartphone.

That dog picture is a gem!!! 🤗
Thanks! 😊 I was so happy it worked out.
I like the shafts of light in the final picture. Nothing like a good tropical storm here in Queensland.
They are spectacular, and I couldn’t stop looking at them. I think Bryce Courtenay referred to them as ‘fingers of God’ in his book April Fools Day. The storms here can be pretty intense 🙂
That is a great idiom!! “The fingers of God”
Love the smiley face in the last one. 🙂 🙂 I like a stormy sky too.
Thanks Jo, smiles and spectacular skies are pretty hard to beat 🙂
