I was working today with the understanding we were in for a fine day and no rain. I did not cover over the mount but for some cloth to cover it from the sun. At about 12:30 I looked north dark clouds and rainfall, I took off as fast as I could to cover the mount and telescope at home. I had everything covered and about 2 hours later "whats that noise" the heavens opened up. northern suburb's cars are drowned by the volume of water houses lost there ceilings and a lot of damage. The shot above is at sunset when the next shower is about to hit lightening and thunder all about I was out in the rain drops to get the shot. 33 Days since we had "ANY " rain fall but not in this volume.. This put paid to the idea of shooting the last night of the panorama I have been doing. for those technically minded this is a three shot freehand panorama with the 24mm lens.
