Canberra Storms from Gibralter Rocks

Posted February 17th, 2011 in Adventures by Korske Ara

A few weeks ago, we had some awesome storms in Canberra. Richard and I wanted to try and capture some photos of the storm so we went for a drive though the mountains around Canberra to get a good vantage point.

We locked the hubs and went up as high as we could with bursts of rain every now and again. We ended up hitting a gate close to the top so we got out and trekked the rest of the way up. The view was amazing and watching the storms roll over us then over the city one at a time was incredible.

At one point, we could see three separate storm systems across the city with lightning flying everywhere. It was one of those ‘had to be there’ moments.

    WOW! They’re amazing captures! And a little scary too! :)

  2. Great pics! Especially the third one, it gives you an idea of how thick that rain/haze was.
