Tim, this is almost too hard to look at, when you think of the death and destruction caused by a forest fire...The desolation of the landscape combined with the charred trees make for a sobering image. I always said a photo sends a powerful message, if we want it to.Not every photo has a 'happy' message to it but some of them have messages that need to be heard. This is certainly one.I will add this one to my favorites.

Thanks, Karen. Healthy forests cannot survive without a periodic cleansing fire, making way for new life.
