The lensbaby idea didn’t last long but I will get back to it tomorrow.

Couldn’t resist this sight about 8am as the southerly was passing by while the sun was still shining – I’m not a blip addict …….. so why was I standing on our deck, being pelted by hailstones, taking pics on a freezing cold day?!?!?!

The southerly blast continued all day with several fronts like this rocketing through and clattering our roof with very large hailstones.

I made the panorama with images straight from the camera then gave it a very slight sharpen – I haven’t changed the colours and this is the storm just as I saw it.

In [url=large]large[/url] you can see the drifts of hail over the city ………. and me!!
