After The Storm
Bird on a stick with a rainbow. We made a second trip to this weir after driving through the storm back to St George. It was still raining when we arrived, and then the rainbow appeared over the water. Sylvia reminded me that my camera was in fact weatherproof, so off I went with no rain jacket or umbrella to position myself to get the galah in front of the rainbow. The afternoon light on the wet dead tree made it look like 9ct gold. I only had a few seconds before he took off. It will never be a pin-sharp image because of the drizzling rain, but it's still my absolute favourite for the trip.
