Details:
The Thomas Fire, which began on Dec. 4th near Santa Paula, California has now burned over 243,000 acres, an area the size of the city of New York and Chicago.
The fire continues to burn toward Santa Barbara and Goleta, California, where I live.
The ash and smoke have made any observing almost impossible, except for those brief moments when I don a face mask and see what the camera can image.
The sun photo was taken on the fifth day of the fire at sunset. The moon shot was taken on the 8th day of the fire in the morning.
Nikon D90, ISO 400, 18-200 Nikkor lens.
It is anticipated the fire will continue to burn a few more weeks with containmment around the cities of Caprinteria, Summerland, Montecito and Santa Barbara within a few days.
