    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     dlangshaw says he was drawn to the dramatic spectacle unfolding in the mountains as air tankers departing the Redding Airport headed out to help battle the raging Ponderosa Fire outside Manton, CA. "What stood out to me was the massive clouds that were being produced and the massive undertaking that was happening to respond to the fire," he says. "I felt a sense of urgency as the area is populated."
