Photos of a Massive Storm Approaching Birubi Beach

In late December 2008, my family and I were camping at Birubi Beach Holiday Park when we heard some of the “neighbours” talking about a big storm approaching. I booted up my laptop, connected to the NextG wireless modem and checked the weather radar. Sure enough, a massive cell was heading straight towards our location. We had about an hour before it was going to be upon us.

As the wind started picking up, the campers busied themselves putting away loose materials and tying down their tarps and tents. Once my household duties were complete, Jacob and I went for a walk to the nearby carpark up at the Birubi Beach Surf Club to take some pictures of the approaching storm.

Cheez how good does that look.

Top work there Mike, love the cloud structure and the contrast between the dark ominous storm clouds and the red of the sand hills & beach.

Top stuff
Regards
Trevor

Nicely done, Mike....a bit of work involved in those.

Reminds me I must get around to having a crack at HDR and panorama images.
