The Entire Province of British Columbia, Canada is under a " State of Emergency" due to Hundreds of Forest Fires now burning. And Lots of Smoke throughout the province. However this smoke created a Colorful looking Full Moon Last Night at 10:30PM. This is a 50X Optical Zoom of it, With my Cannon "SX50HS" Camera. Their are No Fires Close to me at this Time, Thank Goodness. Click on it for Full Size.

Very nice Gary , hope everyone is safe and well . 230 Forest Fires burning in BC, No Contained. Most started by Lightning. Safe in my town for now? ?? Two towns have been burned up and 13,000 People have been Evacuated in BC, as of now sh##t !! i can't understand, how is that possible in developed countries like Canada and USA ?? i mean, it's not modern Russia, where everyone gives a f**ck on any rules. in USSR, there was a developed forestry service, which effectively prevented such kind of accidents. now it's almost gone, and we also have big forest fires each year ((( but Canada? ... with working law and good economy???

Most of these fires were Started by Lightning Strikes. it does not matter, forestry service should care of making fire-prevention clearings, harrows, also remove dry and fallen trees, to minimize possible area of fire. |

With the current fires, they are pushed to the Limit Now. They have brought in another 300 fire fighter and Equipment from across Canada to help fight the fires. But the weather here remains HOT and their expecting High Winds in a few days. The Hope is NO FIRES in my area.Interactive Map of Fires in BC, Canada |
