The iPhones are pretty good with low light.
All taken half hour ago. Normal, 2.5 zoom, 0.5 wide
Nice. Lovely sky, good looking volcanic peak.
The best camera is the one you have with you. Phones are fantastic for that job.
Great time of day @seeds, fading light and birdsong
I liked how you could see the showers in the distance in the light band.
Ooh golden showers,......
I like that too Seedsy. (You are a rapscallion, Blackers)

Soz, have been out celebrating a millstone adjacent birthday. Haven't been called a rapscallion for many a decade. Cheers Wax
haha, 'millstone'..
merry returns, @blackers ; )
Hahaha... i very much enjoyed just typin out the letters on that one, Blackers. A fleeting moment of joy in a life blessed with those. Funny how the bad stuff lingers more easily. Or maybe that is just me? Anyways... i will echo Base on the Merry Returns.
an empathetic person who has social intelligence winces about their life several times an hour, @wax.
You’re a bloody ratbag Blackers.
(same meaning colloquially @Waxxy)
and so do i, Base ;)
I really did like the showers in the band of golden light. I gotta wait a few months for any rain, here. And we got a fire season to wade through between now and then.
Yes I have been called that many a time seeds. And thanks for the kind words. Btw Base, millstone adjacent. Big one next year. 3 generations at the table, from 24 to 92 years, for a convivial evening.
Brilliant shot ...
Award Winner.

Doesn't look like Jane Bun
ch7 weather.
Cropping land gives wide vistas.
A good feeling of assured calmness hit me seeing this. Then…….
bit of pub reading for you, @seeds - the savannah theory:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savannah_hypothesis
Savannah, the new definition, sounds like the bush up northern oz.
Becoming bipedal surely wouldn’t necessarily mean old traits devolved, just a broader adaptability.
yeh, good points.. I remember reading some savannah theories suggesting 'when we can clearly see a distance, and our subconscious can see there is no impending threat to us, we function better' type thing; calm = quality thinking vs. adrenaline = manic thinking.
Hunting on the open land would have presented its challenges. You see dinner it sees you.
Were Australia’s first people the only ones to burn the scrub?
Pretty smart to realise the prey potential.
In semi lockdown I'm finally sorting through a lifetime of photos and inspired by what Craig and Andy recently posted I thought why not.
We travel a fair bit and there has to be some crackers in the vaults.
Good if we follow the Swellnet tradition of not naming or being too obvious.
