Perth was hit by a very big storm that delivered a hail storm that was close to Golf Ball size hail for about 25min. The open air car yards instantly got cars with panels that had the look of the surface of a golf ball. There was a lot of discount cars at this time with a very distinctive look. Once the Storm passed the Sunset was quite some thing one of the most colourful I have ever seen and the clouds really stood out.. This is From 22/3/2010, cars are still driving around with the tell tail sign that they went through the storm.

I was told to expect lightening so I took the lightening trigger. no way you could get this without a lightening trigger. By the time you see it its gone for the camera. The interesting part is I have a almost red version in sunset clouds as well but looks better in the night time.

On our trip out to Kalgoorlie We first had to leave the Perth rain storms behind. the contrast is the colour of the wheat fields still not yet harvested. Taken out the Bus window 103km/h

The day was 100% punctuated by cold rain showers and very strong winds.

The whole back patio are was under water do open out large.

It looks out of focus its just so much rain.

This storm we where told "may be bad" very few lightening strikes but plenty of hale and rain. Started 4:09pm finished 4:39and last cloud photo 5:20pm a total 40.4cm.

We got no rain the Hills got drenched lots of home no power from lightening.

Out to sea the rain storm gathers.

Piha NZ The rock at the very front is called the "Nun" an attempt to capture the colours of the storm not the colours on Nikon. the camera was in a plastic bag to shoot in the rain storm. an image i walked away very happy with.

The moments after this it was umbrella up cover over the camera bag heavy rain and 10min walk away from holiday unit tripod under arm.

I could see it coming and hear the rain

this was taken while i was sheltering from the rain out the back of the house. light and sound came together. If you open out big you can see even the rain drops are lit
