Effing AWESOME. Thanks for the link!

I was caught in the middle of some pretty gnarly wildfires back in '03 and '07, and some of those pics really bring me back. I can't describe the unreal feeling you get seeing the entire sky blanketed in smoke and ash, and suddently it's as dark as midnight at 2 in the afternoon. The day after, when the smoke descended and everything was just a haze of yellow-red and you couldn't see more than 5 feet in front of you, THAT was even more bizarre.

A link to those photos got posted a week or two ago, but think the link died, nice you managed to find them again.

Still really like the first one. It should have a pair of lightsabres wielding nutters duelling beneath it of course.

They were posted alright! By me nonetheless! But the link did die as stated. I've been looking for these!

Yeah these are awesome, no wonder they had trouble with people and photographers not wanting to evacuate.

There was a wee bit of runoff from the heating of the ice.
