A vehicle parked near the remains of a house destroyed by bushfires in the Australian town of Kinglake, 34 miles (55km) northeast of Melbourne, on February 8, 2009. Bushfires have killed over 130 people and burned hundreds of homes since they broke out in the region.

Vehicles and a barn burn close to Labertouche, west of Melbourne, on February 7, as more than 40 blazes raged across two Australian states in a heatwave that pushed the mercury as high as 115 Fahrenheit.
