Sydney, the capital of Australia, awoke this morning to a haze of red completely covering the city and surrounding suburbs. The dust blanket was apparently caused by sustained high winds blowing over drought stricken areas, but it was unlike anything ever seen before by residents and weather experts.

Down in Melbourne, we weren't affected, but it's pretty awesome to see the pictures in the media. If I was living there, I reckon it would have been an awesome opportunity for some great photos...

Some very spectactular images indeed. Looks like a good day to avoid inhaling!

Thats pretty awful. It must make the beer taste pretty grim as well.
I bet you wish you were on holiday abroad at the moment.

Nice sepia effect. Makes it unnecessary to convert to BW and tone.
