Okay, there are no flames, and it doesn't look that big, and the fact that I shot it with a 24mm lens at the wrong time of day doesn't help either, but this is a very large fire. Perhaps you've heard about it in the news. So far it has burned over 40,000 acres, and is only about 15% contained. It's actually several miles from my vantage point in this picture (3rd level in a parking garage), and the smoke extends to the horizon. Thankfully, we are well to the south and in no danger, but many homes have already been lost, and others will likely be burned before this monster is extinguished. At least it was started by lightning, and not a careless camper or smoker.
