A Smoky Sunset_DSC8364

Over the last few days, Perth has been blanketed in smoke haze. The Department of Parks and Wildlife operates prescribed burns in the cooler months to reduce ground vegetation, which then decreases the risk of serious bushfires in Summer.
The haze has resulted in some beautiful sunsets.

I think that secretly the Dept of Parks & Wildlife bosses are photographers and they realise what lovely sunsets the burning policy would create!
