Pics From The Old Mutual Building

The latest Durban Flickr Meetup took place high above the streets on the roof of the Old Mutual building in West Street. Unfortunately our arrival in the sky coincided with the commencing of a thunderstorm. However as the raindrops became bigger and faster and the lightning struck ever nearer, our brave and fearless snappers were not to be moved. Risking life and limb (and Garys job) they stayed out there as nature vented it's anger across the Durban metropolis. After an half hour battling the elements, common sense and thoughts of self preservation finally won the day and our intrepid photographers finally headed for shelter in the basement of the building and continued to take pictures of that. Here are a few images of the evening.
