This image is a high resolution oblique aerial photo. The main focus of this image is the man-made structure in the middle which is distinguishable by its rectangular shapes. Directly surrounding the structure there is a lot of greenness which create shadows leading me to believe that they are trees. Due to the fire hazard in the area, the trees could be serving as a fire block. Surrounding the trees, there is a lot of brown area which could be previously burnt area. Another key feature of this photo is the grayish cloudy area in the top of the photo creeping up on the building. There is also a noticeable line of orange by the gray fog signifying that it is a fire and the fog is smoke.
This image is important and relevant in that it shows the current Easy Fire in Southern California creeping up upon the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. This image was used on the U.S. News website in order to make the public more aware of the severity of this wildfire.
