| This pic was taken by the daughter of a good friend of mine of one of the many fires on Mount Hood this year!! It is an awesome mountain and I have shown it to you before, but not like this! Quite a picture of "my world" today!! |

Terrifying … wonder if the carelessness of mankind had anything to do with some of this … and I wonder how wildlife survives in such dramatic cases. Firefighters have got to be on the top of the list as heroes.
That is so frightening! And awe-inspiring too.
What a frightening sight, but beautifully captured. Have a great day, Sylvia. Greetings Jo

My word that is terrific work. This give 'awesome' its true meaning!! YAM xx
Amazing shot!
Hi Sylvia, what a frightening sight and great photo.
Sylvia I have not been visiting you because I could never get on your blog there always was a blog from 2009 on. But now it all of a sudden worked out well. Sorry it took such a long time but do know that I honestly tried. I must have done something wrong but I still don't know what. Have a nice week.
Oh Wow! That is totally awesome. I've never seen a photo like that. I hope that's not a fire in the distance.
Oops! Sorry. I checked again and I see that it IS a fire. Yikes!!!
That's an amazing shots. Frightening but very beautiful.
Sad that there's a fire but what a photo!
Fantastic and scary all at the same time Sylvia.
That's a scary sight!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
That is an awesome photo!
Great photo capture. I would never get tired of looking at that mountain!
terrifying...
I hope that fire has already been put out!
Fires like that must be terrifying if you live in the area.
it's majestic.
have a lovely week. enjoy the last days of august.
Beautiful and terrifying all at the same time. Hope the fires are all out.
It is a gorgeous shot of Mt Hood. The fire is scary, I hope everyone was safe. Thanks for sharing, Sylvia. Have a happy week ahead!
Very dramatic Sylvia .... capturing events as they happen.
Hoping you have a wonderful week. xx
Wonderful photo, striking with the fire at the foot of the mountain!
Saludos!
Here I am just down the street (so to speak) and I didn't know about these fires. Gosh. Amazing picture...hope all is OK on the mountain by now.
Great photo! And yes, wild fires are the bane of our dry season in the forests.
The fires out west are horrible. I know of the recent one in Colorado and the current ones in California, but I didn't know that Mount Hood also was threatened by fire. Bad!
All I can say about this photo is 'Wow!'.
It's a spectacular photo!
That's crazy, it's supposed to be too wet in your part of the world for wildfire. But what an awesome photo!
Quite a picture to be sure!
It's a brilliant shot Sylvia, but dreadful circumstances oui!
The fires just get scarier every year, Sylvia. Beautiful (though terrible) photo, though.
A fantastic shot until you see what it is all about. Wildfires are the bane of our existence here as well. Others look forward to the summer and the beach, I just dread the dry and the fires.
Thank you for your kind words my dear.
Amazing contrast of different kinds of light. Great pic by the photographer.
Indeed a WOW pic!!
Wow! Love this scene!
Impressive!
Hi Sylvia! I am terrified of bush fires. In Australia there are a lot of them and my daughter lives in a forest, which is sometimes very dry.There are bushfires which are started deliberately by the local people, but they are under control.Wildlife runs the danger of being killed by fire. I hope that the fires in your country will be extinguished soon. I saw some of it on TV, this morning.
Congrats to your friend's daughter, it's a fantastic shot. Fires have been a nightmare here! Four firemen have died just in August.
Wow! Thats a great picture!
Cheers - Stewart M.
Once you have had a big fire close to your home like I, you only can think of all the destruction it causes:(
