Photographers Snip Snap

Here's the view from the second floor cut across on Phelps Hall where I work at UCSB. Not too pleasant. Last August the Santa Barbara back country burned for a month (yes, an entire month), and while it made things mightily apocalyptic, those of us who live in SB luckily were never threatened. This Gap Fire, however, is already on the coast side of the mountains.

Here's hoping the winds stay down and the firefighters can do their mighty work.
