:(((((((((((((((((((

Some pics I snapped from my house tonite (Oct. 23rd):

overview of both the Portola Ranch fires and Santiago Canyon Fires. IF you can make it out, they are both almost connected behind the long small knoll...

Canon Rebel XT: 30" exposure 11apt. 55mm zoom

No post processing. And sorry for the high grain, I am too lazy to p-chop rite now...

maybe someone will make a nice comment like that to you when you suffer a loss :)


anyway --those pics are pretty scary. We're back in our house --all we had was smoky air and a lot of ash.

was the original picture taken from suicide hill in turtle rock? i am just wondering. i saw the flames from the other side of santiago canyon (off jamboree and chapman) at the chevron. it was pretty bad. hopefully they open up santiago up soon along with modjeska canyon also
