Up 'til now, I always thought of it as a razor sharp, snow capped beauty. I now have a very different image to deal with. ;( Looking at it jogs my memory. I can feel it in my throat and it and makes my eyes burn. I posted a shot taken around 8 or 9 AM, during that event, that showed the sun as a dull orange ball.
Jack ========== Ditto re razor sharp. And ditto re other image. :-( It was somewhat traumatic, actually, although nothing happened to me. Although I did drive with the windows up and the air conditioner on recycle. Breathing smoke is not a good thing, and all that particulate matter... though no one else seemed to be worried about it (in the places I was). I think they should have. You can't tell, always, when you are in the middle of smoke, not if the visibility at ground level is semi-okay. Then when you look back where you were you realize, hey, I was in the middle of that. I worry about this year -- next May, next June. Not that far off now, with seemingly a massive drought.
