Kaleidoscopic sky

Following on from my previous post, the sky at Semaphore beach that night was so kaleidoscopic, I just couldn't resist sharing more images from that experience!

(was also absolutely delighted to have my Nikon back from repairers!)

 

 

 The constantly changing shapes and colours kept me spellbound

while behind me . . . . (that building is a famous South Australian landmark - the Largs Pier Hotel)

Do you have a favourite? I found it impossible to choose - hence the many inclusions!!

Welcome relief

After several days last week of very high Summer temperatures here in Adelaide, South Australia daytime top of 40C and overnight low of 34C at 7:30am), early evening one day the temperature dropped by an appreciable 10 degrees, so I headed off down to a local beach for some relief. I was not disappointed!  As the next 2 hours unfolded, the sky provided an extraordinary light show as the sun dropped over the horizon.

(for some reason these pics have not uploaded in the sequence I chose, but nevertheless I hope you enjoy them).The shots are almost entirely straight out of the camera.

 

 

This poor dog was also feeling the heat and at one stage actually SAT in the water!

 

The views were so incredible, it was hard to choose amongst all the photos taken, so forgive me if I've "gone overboard" in sharing the experience!
