Dark brooding storm clouds (in a most fascinating formation) roll over the red sands of the desert today, bringing with them the long forgotten pleasures of rain.
Captured at Uluru (1st November 2008).

The selective colouring makes for a terrific image
Thank-you blamo, but Mother Nature is responsible for the selective colouring – I just tweaked the contrast and brightness a little in Photoshop. I am pleased that you like this!

Woohoo indeed! It was so nice to see the clouds rolling in and to hear the deep dark rumble of thunder across the desert landscape and to enjoy the smell of rain at last!
