Red dust storm

First of all apologies for not posting yesterday, I flew into Sydney in the morning from Wellington where I spent a long weekend then went straight to work and finished the day very tired and couldn't get round to post a little something.

What a day it has been in Sydney!! I woke up this morning to the news that the city was shrouded in a blanket of red dust. I opened my curtains and wow! What a sight!! I got ready very quickly and left as I knew my walk to work would be a long one because of the photo stops I would make!

I like each of those, but maybe the Martin Place one is my favourite. It was eerie, wasn't it? I was not as brave as you - i stayed inside as long as I could.

Thank you Julie! I was quite happy with the MP shot too. I'm not too sure about brave :).. I was reading your post about the storm earlier today and I understand why you stayed indoors, it was surely wiser to do so.

It sure was eerie and yet beautiful! And lots of happy snappers around town.

Fantastic shots! As much as the storm was scary, it presented some amazing photo-ops!

Amazing shots, all of them. I hope you saw my dust storm shots.
