Description
Grass Fire Sunset
This red sunset is a result of large grass fires in the SW plains of Kansas. We were about 80 miles [approx.130Km] from the burn area. It was very windy and you could feel the ash hitting your face when outside. The smell of burnt grass pervaded. The dark cloud is actually ash and smoke.
Thanks for viewing my gallery

I hope the fire was set on purpose.....otherwise is very dangerous. Made for a great photo at any rate.
Wild capture. I hope you were not in harms way
A wonderful picture!
Great capture at the right moment.
Beautiful red sunset, I have a few shots back in the day of the haymen fire we had, red just like this one. Cool shot, Jim.
I got some beautiful shots of this until I started choking. The smoke was so thick here it looked like our woodland and pasture were on fire. I was so happy when the wind shifted out of the north!
The sky is impressive, excellent capture !
Pretty!
Nicely captured :)
on my way home traveling on I40 the storms were covering the sky at sunset. there was a narrow place that the sun came through and the clouds were ablaze with color. I was afraid to stop to take a picture, besides a 50mph(wind chill about 30F) wind blowing. my 4Runner is full of sand/dust and I am hoping for no paint damage. tomorrow I will wash it to survey the damage
Great shot of the smoky sunset!
I'm assuming this was not the normal burns that take place from time to time. Several years ago our photography club was on a field trip to Konza Prairie, and we stopped to take photos of a controlled burn that was being closely monitored.
wonderful capture !!!
OH! I do hope no people are harmed, but I assume, that some animals didnt go free. How sad it is. Hope it is under controle. But it is s beautiful shot.
This was supposed to be a controlled burn that got out of control when high winds suddenly developed. Sadly, numerous livestock, wild animals, and homes were also lost to the flames. Jim
