Title from caption list supplied by the photographer, see file NLA04/564.; Part of the collection: A blood red noon, photography of the Brindabella & southern ACT fires of January 2003.; Also available in an electronic version via the Internet at: http://nla.gov.au/nla.pic-vn3513678; Purchased 2005. "Stromlo Forestry settlement at 1300 hr, 19:01:03. In time, Nature, after a few good rains will be seen to repair itself and flush the countryside with a velvety green; but to see the homes, lives and works of man wrecked on such a scale crushes one's soul. Stromlo forestry settlement was once a friendly ramshackle collection of buildings and homes that was well done over and rendered a shambled junkyard amid stark and lifeless pine trees"--Note from the photographer
