Thomas Aylett shot some amazing photos of a massive dust storm that turned Sydney, Australia orange this morning. There are more great photos of the storm on The Big Picture and Tom Coates created a Flickr gallery of dust storm photos.

UPDATE: Derek Powazek has published a magazine featuring photos of the storm: “Strange Light, Photos From the Great Australian Dust Storm”.
