Las Conchas fire, evening flames, MichaelZeiler, June 30, 2011:

On this fourth day of the devastating Las Conchas fire which is threatening Los Alamos, New Mexico, the night sky finally cleared enough to see the flames licking all around the labs and the city.

This time-lapse video is comprised of 113 photographs taken 30 seconds apart. Each photograph is shown for one second. My vantage point is from my home on a ridge just to the north of Santa Fe. [...]

The brightest lights are the headquarters of the Los Alamos labs and other technical areas are to the left. [...]
