Am I a Firestarter?...

​The weather was hot at the beginning of the month. I went up to Mount Macedon to photograph the memorial cross at daybreak of 9 March, because it was 29°C all during the night, I was over it and needed distracting. It was the hottest March night on record. Altitude is supposed to be cooler, right?  

Maybe .002 less degrees than in Melbourne

The walk from the carpark to the cross is a wide pathway between trees at the very top of the mountain. I had a heart stopping moment when I looked east and actually thought for a moment that it was fire behind those trees, but it was all good. I was obviously just projecting my core body temperature onto my surroundings.

Cool your jets; it's not fire

The sunrise was nice enough but the ambience was ruined by the appearance of a dozen MAMILs who swarmed over the cross like wasps on a honey pot to get the best vantage point. ​

​By the end of the month, the weather is a bit bi-polar. Warm enough for shorts, cool enough to need socks. Not so cold as to need shoes.

Yay!
