I know theres a couple of these threads up already, but I hope it doesn't hurt to add another perspective

Most of the shots were taken while driving to evacuate, so they might not be the most technically sound... But I think it gives a good look of what was happening from my point of view...

Im pretty happy with what I got, except I wish I would've shot the fire across the street from my house (but I was a little too scared at the time )

Thanks for looking...

Great series. I hope all works out ok for you. I'm sitting on pins and needles as well as I have family affected.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

Wow, glad you were able to come home. Fires are really scary, especially as they can do so much damage. Fantastic shots.

Photographs are records of life. Pity they don't make music when you put them in a record player. :p
