The 2019–20 Australian bushfire season,colloquially known as the Black Summer, was a period of unusually intense bushfires throughout Australia.
After the fires I visited the areas near me that were dramatically affected and was saddened by the devastation to bush and wildlife and the affect on the families and businesses in those areas. I played with the colour in this image to reflect how fierce the fires in many areas were.
Lovely edit. I was in the USA when the worst of the fires where going on. It was big news over there, I still remember walking through Chicago airport hearing people talking about it. I really hope this summer is a lot nicer.
a moving testament, annie. we were in sydney for some of it and i won't forget the incredibly eerie light. indeed the impact must have been severe for many - and now a pandemic to deal with on top :(
I think the bush fires were still happening just as covid took over all the news . From one tragic situation to the next. Very effective colouring of this to suggest the fierce nature of the fires.
