Good Morning fellow IIS's,

I'm in Darwin at the moment and will be spending 3 months in the surrounding area, quite a nice place it is too.

Apparently after the wet season here they do controlled burn offs, they obviously don't give a rats about the Ozone.

Anyway there is smoke everywhere for days on end, and i thought it might make for a interesting Moon rise over the Darwin Harbor,

what do you think.

Thanks Liz, smoke and cloud can really help with some pics.

Leon, for a month or so they have been doing control burns around Sydney whenever the ground is dry enough. Much better the low intensity control burn in winter that the full on bushfire in summer.

Andrew, its all good mate, it really doesn't worry me and I was being a bit sarcastic in a humorous way.
