Just a quick shot on an iPhone. Taken on Manning Ave off of the Saw Mill Parkway.

Great shot! Especially with a Phone Cam!

I remember working for Empress assigned to Rockland County....coming back from Rockland into Westchester onto the Tappan Zee Bridge, my partner and I saw a smoke plume similar.

This was 1998-sh, and a fire in the same area. Also probaly the first fire scene I'd ever photographed, even though it was on film. I'll try to scan some shots.

Now I see these plumes every weekend and they are controlled burns all over since our burn ban is temporarily lifted. Smoke like that usually means brush fire.
