9. July 12, 2004. A section of a plant in bloom.
This photograph was taken on an excursion to
Circle, Alaska. The orange color is due to smoke
from a wildland fire. Large pieces of charred
spruce needles were falling and there was little
light due to the smoke. the fire crossed the highway
a few miles closer to Central later that evening.
The fire passed Central on August 12, 2004.
