Prescribed Burn 20090203

Nightshot of a prescribed burn in the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge
on the Blackjack Peninsula of Texas with an oyster reef in the foreground.

Not sure if this 'controlled' burn went out of control, but it was a spectacular sight.

Photographed along the Gulf coast from Goose Island State Park near Rockport, Texas, USA.

Beautiful shot, great reflection of fire on the water and you captured the light from the fire in the cloud of smoke spectacularly.

Interesting image; looks a bit like the water is on fire so it has a wonderful inconguity.
