That was my hubby's work, literally off the porch. It is pretty much contained and they are in the last stages of overhaul. But damn, report of fire, them are some tall flames!!!!

By the way, he took this with a D300, but I needed to get it to fit in a nice twitter feed. Nothing like news coming to you, heh! Channel 10 locally ran the photo as well.

My 5100 did not have the proper lens and quite frankly the sensor size was again part of the problem.

1. That was a very intense fire.

2. It started at a palm tree

Near or at a homeless camp. Thankfully the Arrundo did not catch. Those two burn, and burn hard.

3. Is that an arrundo an invasive plant?

[nadinbrzezinski]

4. Yeah and damn it burns hot

[alfredo]

5. Do goats eat it?

[nadinbrzezinski]

6. Nope, I wish they did

it looks like this

7. We have that here. Not sure it can survive our winters. There has to be a natural

predator for this plant.
