A massive forest fire

 destroyed between 30-50% of the town of ~ 4,590 residence. I have no idea how much of main street was destroyed. Jasper Masonic lodge is right on mian street. Jasper is on Crown land and the jurisdiction of the Federal Government.

On this date in 1965 a seminal event in rock and roll history took place when Bob Dylan "went electric" during his infamous performance at the Newport Folk Festival. A hero to the folk music community, Dylan's switch to electric guitar was seen as the ultimate act of betrayal by many in the audience, who booed the performance. Urban legend has it that event organizer Pete Seeger was so upset by the act that he threatened to cut the wires to the stage with an axe.  

I haven't been motivated to do very much due to the heat wave we've been having lately. I haven't even pulled out my green screen stored in our closet. Hopefully soon. I'm researching lighting for the green screen at the moment. A friend of mine has a massive green screen just made out of fabric held together by a cross beam and clamps from a kit. His lighting is no different then mine and I can adjust the Kelvin. Anyway, that's all for now.
