Touchdown
Explore – Highest – Nov 20, 2008 #16
Another storm photo from Brisbane from last night (Nov 20th).
The water laps up to the road almost at the moment. So to avoid getting fried, I decided to set the shutter on remote and get the right exposure. Then fire it and run out of the water to the car.
This was taken shortly before a few drops of rain came. I knew then I had a few mins to get in the car quickly. Then came the heavy rain, just making it home before the hail!
