Casualty of Fire

Description

You would normally see the North Shore Mountains in Vancouver from here, but the fires just north of here are choking the life out of the sun. It stayed like this for about 4 minutes before the sun vanished behind the smoke. And I was all alone in that area and all I heard was wind in the trees and the odd bird, and I thought of my neighbours, 'they're just missing all of this'.

Powerful image capturing the immensity of the impact of the fires. Very unique and meaningful shot of a simple moment in time that uniquely conveys an event that had affected so many people. And when you look at it as an observer would on the dyke, you further gain that sense of what you're used to seeing vs what you are actually seeing there, the surrealness of it!
