Apocalypse Now


Did anyone see this earlier this week?

And just how did someone manage to photoshop real life? Well I didn't know this but apparently even Sydney can get dust storms. It's just that kinda week.

On September 23rd 2009, a dust storm 500km wide and 1000km long swept across Brisbane, Sydney and Canberra. Air particle concentration levels reached 15,400 micrograms per cubic metre of air (a normal day would have 20). 75,000 tonnes of dust an hour was blowing of the NSW coast. Anyway, I got an email from Sydney today: "We are moving into spring with strange weather, which includes many sunny days, some quite cold, and a duststorm last Wednesday". Waking up to RED air outside your window and describing it as "strange weather" instead of "apocalypse now" (great film btw) is what i call bravery.
