]]> Local Mullumbimby-ite, Richard Weakley, took this atmospheric shot which sums up the almost wistful beauty of our Northern Rivers area at the moment.  “I shot this wonderful moment of rain clouds bursting on Koojum Range just behind my house,” he says.  “I sat and watched while it crept closer and closer, until finally the heavens opened.  The rain at this time of year brings some relief from the heat so I for one enjoyed our Saturday afternoon drenching.”

It was like a courtship of sorts in the windy weather.” To us here at Verandah Magazine it has a wonderfully illustrative quality – a book cover perhaps?
