You know that feeling... you're inside for a few hours and you step outside and the world is white..

[highlyeccentric]

ooooh, it's all white!
...
white. big old sandstone building.
...
hemisphere check.
...
whoo! first summer storm of the season.








The thunder started up while we were in class, so i was expecting a downpour when I got out... and got this! (it was even whiter, but by the time i got back with the camera, the rain had melted some of it).

the view from my window
~

williams courtyard got a pretty hefty fall, despite all the trees
~

one unfortunate Women's girl in my class had worn thongs out... blue toes by the time we got home ;). I, on the other hand, took my shoes off once inside this door (as they were all icy and slippery) and bolted the length of college to get the camera. Got such a funny look from Mrs Rate- the main floor echoes, so me thundering along is not ideal Womens Girl behavior- that I stopped and breathlessly demanded if she'd seen outside. She smiled tolerantly and said that she had.

by the time i got back to the Quad, there was no mistaking it for Sydney uni...
~

a friendly passerby photographed me with my hands full of hail
~

these two just looked pretty.
~

the tennis courts & The Square, from on top of the squash building
~

these two were having great fun in the hail and the puddle- mum was in a VERY bad mood, but said i could photograph them.
~

i was amused to hear, as she shouted at them, that their names were Lucas and Josh :p
~

liked the colour contrast here
~

pretty sky
~

even PRETTIER sky. This is the sunset Hezki and I didn't have cameras to photograph last semester.
~

the Wesley roof. pretty.
~

williams lawn

Looks like you had a doozy. Beautiful!! :D :D :D

it was bizarre... I've never seen a hailstorm like it.

fun though :)

[lepsdavid.livejournal.com]

I've seen a few, Sydney Springs can be fun like this. Though the best was in autumn, for all the damage it caused the April 14, 1999 hailstorm was VERY pretty.

hmm... maybe the couple of hours south does make a difference? we never got anything so... dense at home. golfballs, yes, but it's always patchy- we get hail and the next block over doesn't, and meanwhile Betty's car loses a window at Raymond Terrace.

Oooooooooohhhh preeeetttty...........

[highlyeccentric.livejournal.com]

really? i was expecting much amusement from you as to the non-impressiveness of a little bit of hail :p

[gryphonvere.livejournal.com]

I've made the even PRETTIER sky photo my wallpaper. =D

[highlyeccentric.livejournal.com]

oh, yeah, that. it's edited a bit- the camera didn't quite get the prettiness, so i fidled for a while ;).

does it stretch ok for wallpaper? i have bigger versions if you wants.

[gryphonvere.livejournal.com]
