menace and also beauty

the previous photo, standing across the street from my house, permits a view
of the hills and fire.

This shot, I did a bit later, standing in my back yard. The trees across the
way obscure much of the view of the fire. To me, this almost appears an abstract.

Just now, on TV, they were showing deer fleeing from the fire..the stopped
briefly in fear of the firefighters..then decided man, this time, was not
as dangerous as the fire..and ran past them to safety.

The fires have reoccurred in Chatsworth, in addition to their spread
now to areas and communities in Ventura County, to the east of me.

For now, I have limited out on available submittals...

Thus far, no lives have been lost and only one home has been taken..
I pray that this tally does not change.
