I wonder which sensor cleaning method (copperhill, etc) works best post-sandstorm???

I knew, of course, that trees and plants had roots, stems, bark, branches and foliage that reached up toward the light. But I was coming to realize that the real magician was light itself.

    That photo is a spin. I was a young fella working at a military base in melbourne in '82 when i walked outside & looked straight at a dust storn closing in. The sun was gone & i remember we were trying to drive home in a bus & we just kept stopping getting pedestrians onboard as they were having trouble breathing caught in it.

    Here is a shot of it....not my photo.

    Cool picture.

    These shots look like something the CGI folks might produce as a "special effect" for a blockbuster movie.

    Try here for cleaning sensor
    Thanks, link is a good one and I've used the methods before.

    Luckily I wasn't in this sandstorm but was amused by the amazing pics on yahoo. But any soldier in Iraq with a dslr who went through that storm - they'll need that link for sure!

    After a serious dust storm, you might need some wet cleaning like this.:D
