Beautiful sunsets, lightning strikes and wildfire
A series of photos: lightning strikes over the Wamberal Lagoon, beautiful sunsets, and amazing clouds.
Lightning strikes above the Wamberal Lagoon in New South Wales, Australia.
I tried to shoot photos at a incredible lightning strikes over Wamberal Lagoon. But nothing was working until my wife came up with a brilliant idea.
And it worked—I ended up with seven decent shots. The secret behind it? Let’s just say it’s a trade secret between my wife and me!
The thunderstorm lasted a tree and a quarter of an hour, and the Lightning strikes were so dazzling that they provided a clear view of the lagoon and nearby homes.
Beautiful Sunsets over the Wamberal Lagoon
When you Live in a house above a lagoon there is always something amazing to see. Over the 20-plus years we spent there, we took hundreds of photos—of stunning skies, waterbirds, and even the emergency landing of a small plane.
This photos over Wamberal Lagoon are absolutely amazing. The sky is ablaze with vivid shades of red, orange, and crimson, while the lagoon below mirrors its.
Each sunset over the lagoon tells its own story in colour and light, and I still can’t decide which one is the best.
Photos of the Lagoon during wildfires
When there was a wildfire, even a small bit of smoke created amazing sunlight.
We had a severe wildfire in 2019. The sky over the Wamberal Lagoon, NSW, Australia. It was quite dark during the day.
Despite the darkness, the orange light on the horizon suggested the enormous scale of the fire.

Even during the day, the view of the lagoon was glorious. A beautiful rainbow spans the lagoon.
The clouds are competing in a running competition.
