Where there's smoke....

Looking west a few minutes ago I noticed what I thought to be smoke from a fire but I can't see any apparent source unless it is behind Ranelagh, the apartment tower, mid-pic.
At the same time looking east there are no clouds or smoke in the sky but the view is hazy probably caused from dust stirred by strong breezes which are also affecting the Saturday afternoon sail races.

  1. Beautiful! Hope the fire was not serious. We're in winter mode now and I'm jealous of you summer!

  2. wcs - the answer came after I posted this. There was a controlled burn off (bushfire prevention strategy) at Oxford Falls north of Sydney.
