This photo of the smoke --
http://www.paulroark.com/SY-Mtns-fire-7-2017pm.jpg -- is 4 hours after the
last one.  This is with the 35mm Voigtlander f/1.7 VM, which is a very fine
lens with the Sony.  Smoke covers a huge expanse of the sky now, and you
can see that the angle it's going up shows that the winds toward Santa
Barbara/Goleta have increased, which is consistent with the dreaded
"sundowner" winds that they fear.  There are a lot of different types of
fire tanker planes flying overhead.
