During Summer, bushfire is very common in Australia. Pictures above were taken during one of the bushfire happened very close from where we live. 

Are was affected was Bunyip which is not very far from Pakenham. Around 20 KM. Not long ago we moved to Pakenham. This was our first close experience with any bushfire.

02 MARCH when this pictures was taken. It was Saturday. when we woke up in the morning were very surprised to see sky all red, orangy and smoky. We had no idea that fire started that close on Friday. 

I went outside in the backyard with Arib. Took some pictures and videos of the sky. Sun was covered with smoke and was all orange in colour just like sunset but very smoky. We could smell the smoke and feel ashes. This was one of a kind experience. Very scary experience. 

Another video of sun close up.

Few more pictures.
