A clear definition of a photographic typology is the study or interpretation of types of things. The fire presented many fine-scale features that deserved close attention, and we continue to discover new typologies as the forest responds to fire.

These groupings of similar image types fall into three distinct categories. Typologies that were created by the fire; revealed by the fire; and, more recently, biological responses set in motion by the fire.

Presented here is one image from each of the typologies we’ve discovered. To view more images of a particular Typology, click the link below that image.
