Storm over paradise
An impressive storm front moved through the Gold Coast. Lifeguards were calling out to people over a loudspeaker to exit the surf due to the approaching storm. All the while, some people were unfazed - kicking a ball (bottom-left), some overseas tourists were taking self-shots with the storm as back drop (bottom-right). In the end, it was fairly innocuous - we just got very brief rain (thankfully). I feel for others in SW Qld who were recently flooded.
This is a stitching of 3 handheld shots. The result is not perfect (I had to do some minor but tedious fixups) but overall result is a faithful impression. Final image size: 7841 x 4506 pixels. The stitching software has not retained the EXIF so I'll add it here: M9 + Zeiss ZM 21mm, ISO: 160, Aperture: f/8, Shutter: 1/45 (leftmost image 1/125).
