Moorabool Viaduct, Geelong
Tragic Sunset by Heather Hartkamp

Taken on Saturday evening, February 7th, near Geelong after a day of record-breaking temperatures (47.6 C or 118 F) and, tragically, the worst bushfires in our state’s history with towns virtually wiped out, hundreds of homes lost and, as I write, a death toll of 28 which is expected to rise when rescuers enter areas which were unreachable during the firestorm. I felt voyeuristic and very sad capturing this brilliant sunset caused by so much disaster just a hundred or so kilometres away. I only hope that those who are missing are found alive and that those who have suffered tragedy will somehow find the strength to rebuild their lives. A testament to my elderly parents who lost their home and everything they owned in the 1983 Ash Wednesday bushfires and a tribute to their resilience in starting again.

Waterfront Action by Jane Keats

About This Group

The Geelong Throng is a group for those living in or around Geelong to showcase images taken of or in Geelong.

We’re proud of our city and want to show it off. The Geelong Throng are interested in images, writing, journals etc – the only requirement is that they must be relevant to Geelong.

It is probably a really good idea to put Geelong in your tags too, it’d help people find not only your work, also the group… plus you never know who might be looking for images of Geelong to use for promotion…

Oh, and be sure to keep an eye on the forums, there’s lots of info about stuff that’s happening in and around Geelong.

....and the newsletter, don’t forget the Newsletter !

....just one more thing, If you’d like to use that really cool Geelong Throng Banner that you see above, go here.
