Congrats. Great shot!

The grass fire is not a phenomenon stateside. You see the world differently once you've spent a couple hours beating the flames out at its periphery to save the compound - something I did once or twice as a child. This really captures the sense of threat posed by natural forces on our lives. Isolation from which somehow makes the world seem a little less real, a little less interesting, a little less alive. Thanks.

i love the 'primevil' feel to this. almost looks like a young earth spewing up lava which the beast is running from.
