Once Again....

Once again I set off camera in hand, this time to Lesmurdie Falls. 

Unfortunately I got thoroughly drenched my meander cut short as yet another storm arrived. The rain too heavy to be wandering around with my camera.

I will return here again in the next week or two and hopefully get further along the trails than I did today......

 

A Brief Stop....

A brief stop at Mundaring Weir to see what the water level was like after all the rain we have had this month.

 A perfect vista.

Finding another path I set off towards the water, sand whipping into my face stinging as it hit my skin.

 The force of the approaching storm bringing with it an ominous energy......
