Pacific Palisades Ca USA The sounds of helicopters at 4am awoke me to a fire burning at the top of the glowing hill.Camera acquired with high ISO set for the dark night . Adrenalin fueled photography ! Emotion came over me including fear that the fire could spread down the hill , sadness for the person who owned the home, dread for the wild life affected yet excited to be in this moment taking photos. Finding the camera comforting in danger . Putting emotions aside to report this moment through photos. Follow up -No one was in the home. The cause of the house fire is under investigation .It has been said to be a possible electrical fire . Fire was out out in tthree hours.

This photo was hand held because the angle of the fire did not allow for a tripod.
