Thunderstorms are a common occurrence in southern Australia, particularly during the summer months of December to February. The hot and humid conditions in the region during these months create the perfect environment for thunderstorms to form.

The formation of thunderstorms is a result of the combination of several meteorological factors, including warm air rising, the presence of moist air, and instability in the lower atmosphere. As warm air rises, it cools and condenses into clouds, and when the clouds become sufficiently tall, thunderstorms can develop.
The southern regions of Australia, particularly along the coast, experience some of the highest rainfall during the summer months, with thunderstorms often bringing heavy rain and strong winds. The sudden downpour can cause flash flooding and road closures, disrupting daily life for residents.

However, thunderstorms can also bring much-needed relief from the heat, especially in rural areas where the intense summer heat can cause heat stress in livestock and damage crops.
Despite the potential for disruption, thunderstorms are a natural and important part of the meteorological cycle in southern Australia. They help to regulate the temperature, distribute moisture, and provide a source of water for the region’s vegetation.
In conclusion, thunderstorms are a common occurrence in southern Australia during the summer months and can bring both benefits and challenges. It is important for residents to be prepared for the potential impacts of thunderstorms and to take necessary precautions, such as seeking shelter during severe storms and avoiding driving through flooded roads.

Natural backgrounds
For those of you looking for stock photo backgrounds of nature based content, we have you covered. Whether you are looking for, clouds, dried mud, foliage, water, or any other background photos from nature, we have them.
The vast majority of our natural backgrounds are sharp and in focus, however, we are now adding new, less obtrusive, out of focus style images to our collection. Much of the new content being added is exclusive to our site. Which is important, if you are creating something that you want to be uniquely yours. What do they call that? Oh, yeah, branding.
While I waffle on about exclusive content, let me explain if you see a watermark across one of our images that says exclusive. It is precisely that and hasn’t been distributed to any other library full-stop. Previously we had been supplying exclusive content to an external image library. However, we discovered they were re-distributing that exclusive content to a network of well-known providers as general content. Let’s just say, were are not amused.
But back to talking about background images. Most of you will realise that not every background image needs to be specifically created as a background. Generic street scenes and landscapes also make excellent visual relief in your designs. You will find plenty of the latter in our library.
