The day the sky turned red


A photo from the day the dust storm came to Sydney. This is the Northbridge - a wonderful old bridge on the northern approach to the city.

  1. I like this bridge. I have to cross it every time I go to visit my uncle who moved to Northbridge in 1964.

  3. That's amazing. I completely missed it. Found out about it in a net cafe in Livingstone, Zambia, and couldn't believe the photos and news reports. Got home to a house full of red dust.

  4. It is surprising to think that a year ago the desert was so bare it blew all its way to the city whereas now its green green green everywhere.

  7. Brilliant shot, Peter. I posted a couple of shots around the train stations in my local area. Australia really is the place of droughts and flooding rains. This was just a year ago and now there doesn't seem to be an end to the rains.
