These extraordinary photos of the LA fires have been shared widely on social media, often without crediting the photographer.

These are all the work of Ethan Swope, an LA-based photojournalist working for AP.

A street is orange from flames and you can see the high winds in the palm trees. Sparks fly down the street A fire truck is engulfed in parks and flames are seen on the hill. The entire photo is red and orange from the fire A fireman with a hose runs across the front of a house in flames in the background The inside of a house is a ball of flames. The only visible thing inside is a burning Christmas tree
