Hi all,

Managed to get up to Strzelecki Lookout in Newcastle, Australia this afternoon as a series of summer storms approached from the west.

These 3 images are handheld HDR's taken with the 40D + 24-70mm f/2.8 L USM. Each image was created from 3 individual photo's.

C&C appreciated!

I also thought I'd throw this one in. While waiting for the perfect shot, I took this shot of another person waiting for the same shot :D

I generaly don't like blue clouds, but they work well in these photos. I like them.

Thanks you all! :D

I've just been advised that they'll be shown on my local TV station tonight [NBN Newcastle for any locals that may be reading this] during their weather segment.

cheers,
