[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A wildfire, also known as a wildland fire, forest fire, brush fire, vegetation fire, grass fire, peat fire, bushfire (in Australasia), or hill fire, is an uncontrolled fire often occurring in wildland areas, but which can also consume houses or agricultural resources. Common causes include lightning, human carelessness, arson, volcano eruption, and pyroclastic cloud from active volcano. Heat waves, droughts, and cyclical climate changes such as El Niño can also have a dramatic effect on the risk of wildfires.

The word "wildfire" was once a synonym for Greek fire as well as a word for any furious or destructive conflagration. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the earliest known usages are specifically for lightning-caused conflagrations. The modern usage may have arisen in part from people misunderstanding the expression "spread like wildfire".

Hi Igor!
It's impressive, and it dramatically shows effects of human carelessness.
Technically maybe a little lack in sharpness, but it works well!

Ciao, Antonella

Hi Igor,
The point of view also gives the impression to us to be us in the center of fire. Afflicting but taken very well and perfect colors. Great shot.

Hi Igor,

this is a great shot. so vivid are the colours. i hope this is not because of human carelesness or arson.

what ever is the cause, nature will take its course. life will regenerate as there is always afterlife.

Dobra & well done!
