A new sprout flourishes next to a section of a burned pine tree. This sign of new life was found two weeks after a massive forest fire destroyed the area.

Killer Tree
This is the charred trunk of a massive Pondarosa Pine tree that had been tagged “killer tree” by the forest service and slated for immediate removal. About 80% of the base of the tree had been destroyed by the Little Bear fire of June 2012 north of Ruidoso, New Mexico. The 80 feet tall sentinel of the forest was in danger of imminent collapse.

Close Call
The blackened and charred area of the Little Bear fire outside of Ruidoso, New Mexico, came dangerously close to many structures. Due to the valiant efforts of firefighters… most structures were saved… although over 250 homes were lost. Photograph taken Sunday, June 24, 2012.
Singular Selection
In an event which happened many times during the destructive Little Bear fire outside of Ruidoso, New Mexico… one family’s home appears untouched… however the neighbors across the street lost everything. Photograph taken Sunday, June 25, 2012.
What Once Was A Neighborhood
Smoke still lingers in the air and above the trees of a neighborhood ravaged by fire. The 45,000 acre “Little Bear” fire destroyed 254 homes just outside of Ruidoso, New Mexico. Photograph taken Sunday, June 24, 2012.
