I was traveling with the writer Thomas Keneally. We were working on a book on the Northern Territory together, and here I was driving the car when we came upon this scene. There was no time to explain, I jumped out of the car and through the flames to get to these trees. My boots were smoking from the heat.
When I got back to the car Tom was looking a bit concerned because you’re not really supposed to stop the car and run away in the middle of a bushfire!
