Dramatic Nature

Dramatic Nature

Right place, right time for this shot! Wanted to shoot the Devils Kitchen in the Noosa Heads National Park, but the sky didn’t agree with landscape photography on this afternoon. Hanging around shooting my favorite subjest, eagles, this offshore rainstorm came rolling in.

The setting sun came out, and supplied this wonderful scene! By far the most illuminated rainbow I have ever seen, it was so bright..

Canon 50D, 10mm, Available Large, and definately best viewed Large!

Noosa Heads National Park, Queensland, Australia.
