Stormy weather

I have decided to indulge in a picture today, dear reader.

I was fortunate to have the digital camera on hand when this impressive storm front conquered the city of Sydney late last year. And I do mean on hand, since I was feeling uninspired to leave the front row seat on my balcony during this fast moving display of mother nature.

Storm Front over Sydney, Australia

The view is to the south, with the bevelled head of this stratocumulus battle star just coming over the dwarfed towers of Sydney's CBD.

Only minutes after capturing this image, the patch of blue skies to the east were successfully blotted from existence and I was back indoors, with doors and windows firmly shut, as the building was buffeted by high winds and rain.
