A slightly different photo today!
Not really the colours of Australian sporting teams but....
Plenty of colour at Cornelian Bay thanks toCassandra Leigh who says:
Combine bushfires, a northwest wind, and sunset, serve with boat sheds and a side of yacht. Hobart was engulfed in smoke from a couple of bushfires yesterday but it made for some beautiful colours.

Last week Hubby and I went to lunch at a lovely restaurant just to the left of this photo,and sitting inside we looked out on a clear blue sunny day at the boat sheds above. The bay to the top right is Lindisfarne and our bay, Geilston, is just to the left out of the picture. This is the smoky atmosphere we endured a few days ago and there will be more coming over the long weekend as there are over 40 bushfires in the state now. Most of them are in the National Parks so they are hard to reach and hard to fight. We have people from the mainland and New Zealand here helping and a large contingent of flying machines dumping water on the fires as well. while we are not in danger except from smoke everyone is on a short fuse and agitated, including the animals. It is expected to be 40 on Friday and strong winds - just what we don't want!!!
Here is a map of what was happening at 9 am Thursday morning
