This was taken last night, as we were treated to a brief burst of colour in the sky. Saturday and Sunday were much warmer days than usual, and of course the balmy weather means the roses have started putting out vigorous shoots. Still, we never put away our winter clothes in Melbourne, so it could still be cold and rainy during the week. The weather here is a lottery, because it's so unstable - but it's sheer joy for a photographer.

OK, what have you done to Melbourne's weather since I lived there? Used to be pretty predictable. Probably just playin' up so you can take great photos.
If it's a casket now, can you buy a half ticket in it?
Great photo! We get those skys in late winter too.
Hi David,
This is truly amazing landscape and nice shot as usual.
I just post on the Ghost Question in my blog.
Cheers,

What a beautiful photo...I need to blow the dust off my camera ;)
Ah, regardless of the weather my friend, you will always find a frame to shoot, 'tis in your bon es! (Lovely shot.)
Beautiful shot David...would make a lovely PC background shot!
beautiful... Siddharth
Weather is lovely here too, amazing for a bank holiday. Managed to get out on the motorbike and took some pics of the heather...amazing! Out again today...Bronte Country!
Have a good day!

I'm tempted to break the camera out right now and snap a few of the current sunset... but its all the way down stairs, and I dont know if it has batteries.
Hi Catmoves,
Not guilty, your Honour. Unstable weather patterns as long as I;ve lived here.
Four seasons in one day - 'tis true!
Keep smiling

G'day Hammer,
I was intrigued because they're very unusual colours for winter.
Wonderful to hear the same applies there - would love to see some shots when winter rolls around.
Keep smiling

Hi Siddharth,
Great to hear from you. Loved your shots with the underwater camera.
Looking forward to catching up with you and Reem on the Big Day.

G'day Denise,
Yes, was on your blog a while ago. Loved the heather shots - never been to Bronte country, despite all my visits to the UK.
Next time ...
And did I ever tell you I used to ride a bike too?
Keep smiling
David
G'day Your Eminence,
Oh WHAT - that's a lame excuse. The colours today were astounding.
Ya better make amends ...
Keep smiling

The best late-winter skies are the ones that stripe red-blue-red-blue-red....I won't be surprised to see you get a shot of something like THAT soon enough :)
THAT is beautiful!
I will soon be posting a sunset picture I took with my kids standing on the hay stack....it's a stunner.
I thought of you when I saw it!
