Fire in Los Alamos, NM

 This fire at Los Alamos, NM scorched a section of the Tech Area 49, used for a series of underground tests with high explosives and radioactive materials.
Here, the sun tries to penetrate the smoke at Los Alamos. Hopefully they'll soon get the fires under control.

  3. Judgement day feeling in your shot J. One day mankind will destroy the world, unless the world decides to destroy us first. So far no news have been broadcast to us about this accident, I hope there were no casualties..

  7. Beautiful shots - although not of a beautiful event. Sometimes natural calamities like this present great photo ops. I heard on the news that there are no imminent threats, although quite a number of people have been evacuated as a precaution.
