Description
This burning slash pine was part of a prescribed burn done at Jonathan Dickinson State Park, Florida. Prescribed burns are performed to reduce the available fuel in the forests, thus reducing the intensity of any possible future wildfires. The pine lived.

Wonderful photo. I remember back in 1996 a wildfire (started by a train) almost destroyed our house but destroyed our barn. The flames were only two inches from the house when the fire department got there. Two huge pine trees near our house was chared, but they survived while many trees around us did not.
