Mallee Predawn
It is very cold and calm with patches of mist in this pre-dawn light in the Mallee district of the State of Victoria, Australia.
There is no wind but overhead these unusual clouds are being pushed along at speed, from left to right by a seemingly strong and gusting wind, which is tearing and fraying the edges of these clouds.
Five days later I am in the Flinders Ranges of South Australia, 550 kilometres (340 miles) away as the crow flies, when I capture this unusual cloud formation which looked like a unicorn www.flickr.com/photos/184121594@N02/51745951211/
Here this cloud is likewise being torn and frayed by a strong wind whilst all is calm around me.
The next day the Flinders Ranges were visited by a dust storm with very strong, hot, gusting wind - a most unpleasant day.
