Hollywood Hills Fire

Huge fire that started today on the Hollywood Hills. We stood there waiting for the Hollywood Sign to catch fire..luckily after a few hour it was under control..though the Hollywood sign on fire would be an awesome picture (hate to admit it)..haha. I’m glad no homes or lives were lost. (I enhanced the contrast a bit cause the smoke was kinda hard to see)

Great shot Cheryl. Thanks for letting me use it. Very eerie.

There’s more on the fire at dailybreeze.com. Apparently two youths playing with fireworks started it. If you want to see more photos there are plenty more on flickr.

I’m glad he sign didn’t go. I love L.A. just the way it is, warts and all.
