NSW BUSHFIRES

None of today's photos are mine, they are all taken from the Internet.


The photos today speak  for themselves.



Terrifying bushfires are sweeping through huge areas of NSW bush


burning all in their path.


Firemen and women,
  Heroes,

are all that stand between these awful fires and people's homes and possessions .
 
 




Putting their lives on the line in awful conditions.

Fighting blazes like this.
 


Not always winning the battle.




A huge pall of smoke comes in from the west
 
 

 to blot out the sun over Sydney. 


Terrible times.
Let's hope they are over soon
without loss of life.

  3. It is spectacular pictures - awful scenes! Looks like many brave people fighting the fires. That guy in the last picture I think is braver than I would be.
