Early Evening Sun with Smoke-filled sky near Canyon Village, Yellowstone National Park


This is the sun a short time before sunset near Canyon Village in Yellowstone National Park.  A forest fire was raging north of the Madison River to the northwest from this spot and the smoke bloodied the sky.

We photographed this scene on August 16, 2016.  During the day, we had driven along the Madison River and saw where the smoke was coming from, the Maple Fire which was caused by lightning.

Remember, it's not just a picture, it's a story.
