Moon On Fire

Just west of Denver, right at the base of the foothills, there is a recycling center. And just at the entrance of the recycling center there’s an incinerator; during the day, nothing seems to be happening, but after nightfall a distinctive blue flame can be seen shooting out of the top of it (as previously seen HERE).

Through random chance, on my pass through Denver the Moon was in a position to be easily seen right next to or behind the blue flame. Two nights provided two different atmospheric conditions… the first night was cloudy, with a barely-visible crescent moon; the second night was clear.
