The fires out in California (once again!) provide some great conditions for photography, if nothing else.

I shot this one the other evening out of my living room window with an older Nikon COOLPIX L810 grab-and-go camera at max zoom (who goes outside anymore, and especially when everything is on fire?).

Actually, I was not near any fire but they were still close enough to smoke up my area.

This evening the sun came out. For a minute.
