There was a fire scare today in my community in San Clemente, CA. It's being called the "Pico Fire" since it started near Avenida Pico, about 2 or 3 miles from my house. The winds were gusting, and the humidity was extremely low at just 5%. The fire burned around 1 or 2 acres and was getting dangerously close to homes and businesses. I took a walk from my house to the site and snapped this picture. I spoke to a firefighter on the scene (the lady in the middle in the image), and she told me the fire was 100% contained, which was a huge relief.
Super glad to hear that you are in the clear... It's been a dry winter in CA thus far, hope we get some rain soon to reduce the risk.
BTW... very nice documentary/reportage images
cheers,

Took this last week with the R-D1 (let me know if not allowed). I liked the moon and the light.
Not just allowed but encouraged, beautiful work.
I remember my R-D1 fondly, and you'd think there would be a market for a revival of the retro-futuristic design language of it.

Terrible tragedy! Mother Nature's rath is unforgiving!

Thanks, Stephen. I came into ownership of this beauty recently. The body has seen very little. Even had the peel off plastic on the rear lcd and viewfinder when it arrived. Unfortunately, on the first weekend of use, the LCD completely failed. Sent to Steve’s Camera to have repaired and it’s good as new. I can’t explain it, but I enjoy using this camera and the M8 more than the 10-R. So much fun.
