Fire on the Superstitions

I took this photo at sunrise a couple of days ago. The smoke was very thick, so had a hard time in processing trying to get a clearer picture of the flames and the smoke coming from them. This result is the best I could get, and it was done in Topaz Studio. Love that software!

Thank you for the comment, Paul. During that day, the wind shifted which blew the fire back on itself. That night, no flames were to be seen. I'm hoping it burned itself out.

Details in the download are good. It is a scary thing to see!
Hi, Carol! Thank you for the nice comment. It is scary. At least the flames weren't any threat to humans on top of that mountain. It just made quite a show. It's believed that dry lightning started that fire and others in the region. All of the smoke in the atmosphere is not only from local fires, but also from the fires in California. You just don't want to spend much time outside breathing it in.

Interesting, CathyAnn. Yesterday I got a really strong whiff of smoke for quite a long time. I couldn't see anything different, but the odor was certainly stronger.
