Miracle Porn

Colin Brown found himself in a part of Griffith Park this weekend that won't be open until winter, so he did what any good American would do, he took pictures.
Some of the pictures he took are haunting and sad and interesting and just plain weird, as blogging.la reveals.
But the one that struck our fancy was the one above. Because through all that fire, and all that heat, this celebrity porn sucked it up.
It literally made it through the fire, and therefore it deserves to be the Photo of the Day.
