A car struck a natural gas line in Mira Mesa late Sunday afternoon, triggering a house fire, San Diego fire officials reported. The incident occurred about 5 p.m. at 8136 Calico St. A fire department spokesman said a motorist hit the gas line, igniting a fire that destroyed the home’s garage. The driver was transported to a hospital and treated for minor injuries.
The first day of summer in San Diego started out as an overcast cool day. The kind of day I like. Not too cold, not too hot, and overcast for the soft lighting. I was searching for a picture that illustrated the cooler than normal temperature and was different. I spotted the group of riders, and waited for them to pass in front of me. With a slow 1/50th of a second shutter speed and panning the camera as they passed, I was able to get the shot.
