Sydney Dust Storm #6

Dust storm in Sydney this morning, as winds up to 100 km/h blow in dust from the desert halfway across the state.

Chatswood Station.

This was 1 hour, 21 minutes after sunrise.

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called The Red Sydney Project, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

We would love to include this photo and any other shots from Sept 23. We awoke to an intense glow. We rose from our beds and we started shooting. This group is a collaborative effort to capture a virtual Sydney from the morning when an eerie duststorm captivated thousands of digitial cameras across the city.

Love the contrast of eerie orange against the "normal" activity on the platform.

Fantastic shot! I love how you've lined up the yellow safety line on the platform so it divides the shot. Creepy apocalyptic on the left and the everyday look of the platform on the right ^^
