Photos: The Grand Canyon Burns

The Dragon Bravo wildfire in Arizona grew rapidly over the past weekend, destroying the historic Grand Canyon Lodge and dozens of other structures along the canyon’s North Rim. See more images via @TheAtlPhoto.

Note

fire, for better or worse, is a part of nature's destructive and regenerative force. to see it on full display at the grand canyon (yes, there are lots of trees there!) is awesome.

but then to capture a photo of the fire AND a starry sky.

swoooooon.
