Pictures of the smoke haze in Colorado are like those pictures you accidentally take of your own feet - everybody has got one and they don't particularly want another.

But for those of you that haven't been smoked out lately -
This was taken Monday evening looking west. We were having an early bronze-colored sunset. (about 2 hours early) The nearest fire was an hours drive away and the biggest fire several hours away. I think the white blob was a flare off my flash, but it could have been a UFO only visible to cheap digital cameras.

Two days later and the air quality is a little better - I think I might take the dogs for a walk. Morning news says smoke reaches from New Mexico to Kansas and is 30,000 feet high in places.
