Outback Sunset

@sandnsurf likes to post sunsets from the country town of Perth and @dmriver puts up a few sunset pictures from his semi-rural location(?!!)

I couldn’t let them get away with putting up their wussy sunsets. Here’s an outback sunset taken this evening in the middle of a thunder and lightning storm with rain approaching on the Warburton-Jameson road..

Some of the pics are a bit grainy as they were taken on my little indestructible camera.

Unfortunately I had to stop taking pictures as the storm bore down on me. It is not until you are in a metal box surrounded by lightning that you realise how many exposed ridges you drive over and how sparse the tall trees really are!

If I have any decent vids of the drive I will put them up in a later post here!

Enjoy.

Ok, Ok, Ok
Great pictures I admit.
We should just agree that the Western half of Australia has the best sunsets!
I will keep taking pictures of my WA sunsets to make you jealous of roof-tiles and random pieces of metal…

The only reason I had not put any up sooner was to prevent you catching sunset envy!

…but you know I suffer from Sunset Affective Disorder

Wow! You really can’t beat this – thanks Robbo! Australia is definitely on my list of places to visit, would love to get shown around the Outback by you someday!

Don’t worry, your metal box is a terrific Faraday cage
