no rest.
no breaks.

chainsaws and generators heard for miles.

no one to listen.
no one to help.

11.08.18
butte county, ca.
wildfire.

unstoppable winds picking up the burning ambers, and taking them to new places to destroy.

thousands of houses burned, as the evacuees watched their whole life, their savings, get turned into ash and rubble.

only having minutes to get what they could and leave, because the fire moved faster than the wind.

leaving everything behind.
already knowing what they would come back to.
nothing.
