I was up near Lee's Ferry doing a hike on Sunday when this previously lightning-caused forest fire literally flared up. The smoke plume was absolutely awe-inspiring. I can't imagine what the firefighters up there were experiencing, looking up and witnessing this massive thunderhead blotting out the last of the sun's rays. This makes the Brins Fire pale in comparison. For better perspective, checkout ~TarryAGoat's shot, taken all the way from Page, AZ.
You have to realize that my submission would not classify well as a photojournalism image. The long exposure collects more light than your eyes would, thus making the light more dramatic and intense. Still, it was quite enthralling to see in person. I may toss this into scraps. Sometimes I like it, sometimes I don't. D70s ISO 500 5s @ F4.5 |

Sagacity is its own reward.
The stillness in the photo in spite of the 5sec exposure has me puzzled. For some reason, I'd expect there to be more blur from the rising plumes of smoke... but here it seems so still. I guess you were far enough from the fire for it not to be an issue..
