Re “Wind is fire’s wild card,” July 5

Just a few words of appreciation for the skill and artistry of Spencer Weiner, the Times photographer who captured a thrilling moment with his photo of the aerial tanker plane north of Goleta.

He must have said “Wow!” when he looked at the image he’d made. I know I did. Excellent work that many amateur shutterbugs could only dream of achieving.

Kudos to Weiner for the best photo I’ve seen in years. In one shot, he reveals the folly of individuals who challenge Mother Nature at the same time that he catches the courage, resolve and bravado of the men and women who make it possible.
