Lunar eclipse sequence, showing total eclipse (left) through full moon (right). While the moon lies in the full shadow of the earth (umbra) it receives only faint, red-tinged light refracted through the Earth's atmosphere. As the moon passes into the penumbra it receives increasing amounts of direct sunlight, eventually leaving the shadow of the Earth altogether.

Yellowstones historic 1988 fires destroyed vast expanses of forest. Here scorched, dead stands of lodgepole pine stand testament to these fires, and to the renewal of these forests. Seedling and small lodgepole pines can be seen emerging between the dead trees, growing quickly on the nutrients left behind the fires. Southern Yellowstone National Park, Pinus contortus
