Sydney and the Red Dust.

Flickr’s blog alerted me to many special pictures of the Sydney storm, and I’ve been trapped in a red, dusty haze for hours.

Mr. Laforet’s Drying of the West.

Holy wow; these fires out West make me nervous. I searched around for a great photo essay on the subject and found some incredible work Vincent Laforet did for National Geographic last year.

The aerials are amazing, do have a look.
