"What is to give light must endure burning."

Forest fire smoke made for some spectacular sunrises and sunsets at Yellowstone on Labor Day weekend. The park rangers I talked to said that most of the smoke was actually drifting from the Rim Fire at Yosemite in California, at least 800 miles away! As I travel across the West taking pictures each summer, I'm always amazed to see how much fire activity there is. It seems to be a major component of Western living these days.
