If you look closely you can see a hint of lightning in the lower left and some faint stars in the upper right.

    This was taken on June 25th, 2008. It was started by lightnig just east of Phoenix International Raceway in Goodyear, Arizona. Wildfiers are usualy named after the geographic area they are in. Because the fire chief did not know the name of this area, he named it after his young son Eathen. Whom he had planed on spending the evenig with. Eathen Fire-6/25/08
