Sunset over Santa Ynez Valley

Sunset over the Santa Ynez Valley. A large canyon brush fire was burning in the Zaca Canyon / Figueroa Canyon area. The wind shifted several hours before this image was taken causing the smoke plume to flow toward the coast. The dark band in the middle is that smoke.

Check out this high altitude aerial of the fires.
