This photo was taken on outskirts of Fort Davis. The quote from DM News described the fires in April. Yes, I am sure about description. Keep on Shooting

A great image showing the ravage a fire can cause.

I like the photo, but it doesn't look "ravaged" to me, nor does the ground look black.

I guess I have to agree with Bruce; it doesn't look "ravaged" by fire to me, other than the bushes in the FG being blackened. I wish the image was bigger; it's hard for me to see it very well.
Good color in the rock formations and a gorgeous sky, too.
