While I was shooting images of the stranded Pasha Bulker on Nobbys beach breakwall on 21st June 2007,
the day before salvage lockdown, I was enthralled by the storm cloud formations over the ships anchored off Newcastle awaiting coal loading access.
I turned around to look back over Stocton and Newcastle and was surprised to observe a stunningly unique sunset with whispy cloud draping down displaying the most unusual sunset I had seen in a long time.
You might like to also visit the "
Pasher Bulker Revisited" gallery to see the storm clouds which were occurring simultaneously over the Pasha Bulker and further out to sea.
