Forest fire

Probably you have heard of forest fire and how devastating it can be. But, do you know it does good as well? Pictures are worth a thousand words. So I shall let the pictures do the talking. =)

A lush green forest.

Along came the fire.

What it looks like after the fire.

Grass and short trees take advantage of the absence of the forest canopy.

Flowers grow and bloom under the clear blue sky, using burnt tree branches as fertilizer.

Trees starts to be bigger.

And the forest is back again once more.

Tadaa!! A blessing in disguise, isn't it? I got to know about the wonders of forest fire by reading Reader's Digest. =p
