Fire at Whangamarino

Another one from yesterday. The fire is still burning and has increased in size again. 15 kilometres and has burned more than 1,000 hectares of land. If you look closely you can see a helicopter with a monsoon bucket attached. Gives a bit of idea of scale and this was when it was a third of the size. The sun had this weird red halo around it with the ash in the air.
Awesome capture. Hope they can get it under control real soon.

So sad to see the damage this fire has caused, but a terrific photo of the lighting and colour from the smoke.

I agree with previous posters. The damage made by the fire is terrible, but the photo is terrific.
