Thanks David. I was hesitant to post pictures of a fire, because it's such a tragedy. But I found the fire department's response commendable, and there were no injuries, so all of the loss is monetary and cultural.
BTW, I found that the smoke made rendering somewhat difficult. Had to pump up contrast and exposure a bit to get decent results.
