Jack Shue Collection (BRAC0090)

Virtual image collection given by Jack Shue of the Broadmead Ridge fire of March, 2025.

This project started just after the March 2025 fire on the hill above Broadmead.   I had attended a meeting of residents where some were worried that the fire damage would be permanent.  Having lived in a woods, I did not think it would be permanent. I felt it would be interesting to see how nature would react over the course of a year.

I set up the project by walking up the "Gentle Trail", and selecting 3 locations (Points A, B, and C).  To the right is a map of where the three points are located (click on the map to enlarge). 

At points A and B I took 3, 180 degree panoramic shots using different lenses to give me different perspectives of the same image (Wide, Normal, and Long). I repeated the process on a monthly basis.  It turned out to be very difficult to find the exact  spot that I started with, but I got as close as I could to the original points.  At point C I used only one view angle instead of all 3 different lenses.  The result was that I was taking 7 different photos every month.

Each of the photographs have therefore been placed into 1 of 7 different files linked here:

With the number of images involved there is a single (contact) page for

each view point.  These were made to act as a table of contents.

The file names are grouped by location (A, B, and C) a number and description indicating the lens used.  Once inside the folder there are 12 photos with names beginning with the location followed by the numerical value of the month an indication of the location spelled out, and the focal length of the lens.
