In summer 2018, a fire started after lightning struck the forest near the northern Italian village of Vesio di Tremosine near Lake Garda. This fire was extinguished partly with water from Lake Garda. The picture shows a silhouette of a fire-fighting plane dumping its load of water over the area where the fire is in the forest on the mountain. The firefly is surrounded by smoke that is lit up orange by the sun shining behind the clouds. Because it is a backlight shot, the contrast is great, dark on the sides and light in the middle. The shape of the mountain with trees and the plane are clearly visible. The rising smoke from the fire and the clouds in the background with the sun behind them add a mysterious atmosphere to the scene.
