Visual Diary

I'm glad it wasn't overcast this evening as it

gave me a chance to practise taking photos of our moon.

I'm making it a habit to take photos at sunrise each day

when I am up early enough or when the sky looks interesting.

Saturday today and I stayed home to catch up on school work. I was wondering what my photo of the day would be when these looming clouds gathered. I thought that taking photos of the storm might be the go.

The storm lasted 15 minutes from the 3rd shot to the 4th shot. The last photo was taken 1.5 hours later.

I took this from outside a friend's place in the suburbs of Sydney

just after sunrise.

You can see Centrepoint Tower in the distance.

I took this photo in the afternoon, before I realised the moon was visible.

By the time the camera was ready for the next shot, the clouds had moved in front of it.

This morning I decided to look out the window to check out the sunrise, seeing as it comes later of a morning as we head into autumn.

The colours were amazing. The sky always looks more interesting, to me, when there are clouds floating about.

I took a series of shots at five-minute intervals, just to see how the light changes.

When walking around the city, sometimes the sky can be the only part of nature that is visible.

The sunset as seen from our friends' verandah.

Needless to say we spent most of our time out there.

I like the cloud formations that I could see from my verandah this afternoon.
