In a day, most of Malibu Canyon was transformed from a verdant landscape to a moonscape of ash and charred tree limbs.

Mark Harding found “a mix of devastation and beauty” there that was scorched by the Woolsey Fire that ignited on Nov. 8.

He found areas within Malibu Canyon, along Piuma Road, Malibu Creek and Malibu Creek State Park painted fluorescent pink with fire retardant or holding on to the last of autumnal color.
