What a @#$% year!

What a @#$% year!
Looking back on 2020, which began for us with raging bushfires covering huge areas nearby, it wasn't a great start - and the year didn't improve.

I wandered down to the beach on 31 December 2019, when the main part of the smoke and fires had cleared us and could hardly believe seeing this elderly couple sitting on the beach contemplating the distance (or the coming year?) through the smoke! Best contemplated large.

In the PiPs:
* people watching the smoke on 30 December 2019
* smoke rising behind neighbouring houses on 31 December 2019
* light through the smoke when the wind changed direction and blew it our way.

Wishing everyone (and ipernity) all the best for 2021. Let's all hope for good health and for better things in the New Year.

It is an amazing picture. Who knows what they may be thinking. A dreadful tragedy for Australia.

Thanks, Rosa. I must admit it is intriguing. Hopefully there is some easing in the fire situation.

Oh wow! Love this image, though *hack, cough* the color of the image certainly indicates the unhealthiness of the air. Sorry that you and I both know first-hand what it's like to live in a place cloaked in by wildfire smoke, but let's hope it doesn't happen ever again!! :P

The fires there were so horrendous, George. I thought of you when we had fires here this summer and how scary that must have been for you all there. Being surrounded by smoke is not a nice experience.

I'm wishing you and yours a much better year in 2021!

In front of the sea they can dream undisturbed... we can all dream of a better year, without loosing friends and relatives, without fires, without virus, without torture, without cutting back on fondamental human freedom...
Best wishes for Pauline and you.
