chokes everything in sight

Thank you for stopping by and commenting. I’m glad you enjoyed the images. I enjoyed the challenge. It got me thinking and realizing how the smoke here has become an everyday moments… at least for now. Praying for early rains.

Yes all these fires are devastating. All the smoke here comes from fires miles away. Every summer the hills here get dry and baked. They just look a lot more eerie seen with and through the smoke.

Glad you like photos. I’ll photograph the hills in the winter and post. Thanks for stopping by and asking the question.

Thank you, it seems so weird how smoke from fire that causes such devastation can have that ‘mystical’ feel to it, and yet it does. Like other wordly. Thanks for naming it.

Yes, it is quite intense. At times it reminds me of Mexico City in the winter, back in the 70’s, when the volcanoes disappeared behind the haze. I haven’t been back since the late 90’s.
