Description

The sun in San Francisco on Friday afternoon, filtered by smoke that blew in from the Camp fire in Butte County. This is about an hour before sunset.

Disasters such as the fires often enhance our images - I have been through forest and oil well fires, sand storms and volcanic ash that all "enhanced" the image. You got a great capture here Martha considering the circumstances.    #1717206

Thanks so much everyone! The only danger here in SF is from breathing the air. I'm doing my best to stay inside with air filters running. I'm heartbroken about the terrible losses elsewhere. #11736484
