Location
This photo was taken in USA Southern California in Pacific Palisades.This is the Palisades fire. 800 Palisades Drive . Oct 21 2019.This is the first day and first location of the Palisades Fire.Time
Taken 12:00 Noon.Lighting
The light was bright light at noon.The light was behind me -infront of the action.The bright light help get a fast shutter and 100 ISO for clarity.Equipment
Hand held photo. Camera-Canon 7D Mark 2.Lens-Sigma DG 150-500ML I love the Canon 7D Mark 2 because of it's fast shutter speed, hand held shots with long lens, and the high ISO. Although on this photo the camera ISO was 100. This Sigma lens is excellent on the Mark 2.Inspiration
I was inspired by three elements the bravery of the first responders airplane fire planes, the skill of the retardant drop,and the effects of climate change on the world in regard to fires.Editing

I have Canon EF-S 18-135 ML .Then bring more lens depending on the shoot.Feedback
