Golden Fire 3-23-2011: John De Bord Photography http://jdebordphoto.zenfolio.com/goldenwildfire3-23-2011 The Indian Gulch wildfire burned for several days on the edges of Golden, Colorado and Golden Gate Canyon State Park here in Colorado. This is my documentation of the fire, often times involving long exposures to capture the devastation of mother nature but also even when she is most destructive, she can also be at her most beautiful. All of these were photographed from the top of Lookout Mountain the evening of March 23, 2011. en-us (C) John De Bord Photography john@jdebordphoto.com (John De Bord Photography) Thu, 24 Mar 2011 05:24:02 GMT Fri, 23 Mar 2012 02:46:42 GMT Landscapes Scenic http://jdebordphoto.zenfolio.com/img/s3/v26/p223613738-10.jpg Golden Fire 3-23-2011: John De Bord Photography http://jdebordphoto.zenfolio.com/goldenwildfire3-23-2011 120 80 Bombing Run-04797 http://jdebordphoto.zenfolio.com/goldenwildfire3-23-2011/e8B22BE
