Storm cells of this magnitude are not often seen along the east coast of Australia. On a late afternoon, a un-forecast storm cell passed over the east coast of Australia, bringing with it some of the most unique cloud textures ever seen in the area.

The wind was extremely turbulent which was detrimental to flying a drone safely, however the nature of the moment outweighed the risk. With the storm being so unpredictable, I had but minutes to capture this image and return the drone in one piece.

As I began to descend back, large hail stones started falling with huge wind gusts. This added to the overall adrenaline rush of capturing the moment.
