Viewed from behind it, in the Barrabool hills, a rainstorm that dumped 60-90mm of rain on many suburbs of Geelong in the space of less than an hour, causing flash flooding. It also left about 6000 people without power for a couple of hours.

Congratulations Phil,
I was wondering which shot pipped mine to the first place, but I can't complain, since I couldn't vote for my own I voted for yours myself

Hi Bob,
thanks so much for those words of congratulations. I really do appreciate them and as I'm sure you know, encouraging comments, appreciation and accolades do make going out with the camera to situations like these, and sometime sitting around for hours, all the more worthwhile to achieve resulting images like this one.
