It was hot and dry today in South East Queensland. I heard that it was 40 degrees celsius in Logan this afternoon. Fortunately I was able to work in air conditioned buildings most of the day. On the way home from Redcliffe I noticed that the setting sun shining through the smoke coming from the grass fires in The Gap. What a photo opportunity! Only problem was I was driving on the Gateway motorway. All of a sudden the traffic slowed down and stopped. I wound the window and took a few photos – one of which I’ve included here.
