 The current bushfire crisis in Australia has triggered my awful memories of Black Saturday fires in 2009. If the cool change didn't come 2 hours earlier we would have lost our house and maybe lives should we have chosen to Stay and Defend. It was a very traumatic experience and I sympathize with all Australians who now face this situation including our dear friend Roz.

I thought this was Roz̢۪s, but the homes didn̢۪t look like typical Australian homes. So how did this image come about!! Some clouds or fog or mist? Also looks like you added some gradient as well, anyway well done.

Oh my. Visions of the catastrophe in Australia. I hope this is mist and not actually smoke.
