I was hoping to see it tonight, but the weather has turned to crud in Sunny Queensland

. Great capture.

Nice one Vincent. I had also planned on having a go at this, but as Firstlight says, there's nothing but cloud up here. (Apparently the Sunshine Coast had over 120mm rain in 2 hrs early this morning!)

Cheers,
Stephen
