Last week on February 13th 2012 we had an epic summer storm hit the Coffs Coast. Fortunately at the time I was on the beach taking a few photos after a long period being stuck indoors lacking any inspiration and motivation for new images. The solid 3 weeks worth of rain wasn’t exactly helping encourage my footsteps either. After flash flooding in late January, two intense storms at the weekend lead to 199 call-outs for the local SES unit, with all hands-on deck until as late as Tuesday afternoon last week. Here’s how it shaped up…
