Awaiting a drenching... by Keiran Lusk
After driving 3800km in my old Toyota Landcruiser this week (from Uluru to Tweed Heads via half of Australia), I was really hanging to enjoy a paddle in my kayak upon arriving back at the water today… But Mother Nature had other ideas. I was greeted ‘home’ this afternoon with this spectacular storm.

Amazing sky, it was like a big upturned bowl over the gold coast! Very sudden! Great capture and what a welcome home, Keiran! :))
Welcome home mate :)
Send some of those rain bearing systems down here please. We are as dry as current records can show. It has forgotten how to rain .
Nice shot too mate, I love a good storm and turbulent sky.
Hey and the Crocks left you alone. Other wise we might not have this to look at.
Wonderful composition!! It’s definitely imminent!
