Description
Fires across Mount Dandenong, Victoria by night.

The fires are controlled back-burns by the Department of Sustainability and Environment. It's an annual thing, but because of the severe drought and early bushfire season the summer just been, there is a particularly large amount of burning to be done. The burns prevent damaging bushfires and encourage the forest to regenerate.
