waterfall of clouds - The Grampians
As always – click image for a better view
A chilly morning on the Mt William range sees cloud and mist plummet off the ridgeline as the colder air sinks into the shadows of the range. Meanwhile the rising sun warms the rockfaces and slopes to the west, forcing the cold damp air to warm,rise and dry – thus lifting and dissapating the ‘downstream flow’ of this ‘waterfall of clouds’.
This ongoing spectacle continued for several hours and was a real highlight to watch and experience !
