On January 8, a day after the fires broke out, photographer Jason LeCras headed out to document the scene. "I know people who live(d) in the Palisades, and in Rustic Canyon just below, and I think I just needed to see the destruction for myself," he says. "Before moving toward commercial photography, I was more of a photojournalist, and deep down I still approach my photography that way. I’m just curious by nature." Here, he shows the remnants of a citrus tree in the side yard of a home in Pacific Palisades that had been leveled by the wildfire.
