Verticals of all kinds.....Fire

Gold Hill, Or

This one was hard for me....I had my own ideas of what I wanted to use.
But as luck would have it, and Mother Nature.....this happened along.
The fire started about 330pm. Several homes and families were evacuated.

Carla,

A very dramatic image and well captured. Putting the power lines along the left edge works extremely well to frame up the smoke and buildings. Great job showing the powerful and emotional aspects of this scene.

Hope that no one got hurt.

Whoa...I had taken a picture very similar to this but not with the fire. A great shot but hopefully the fire will be put out soon.

Dramatic shot. The hanging sun creates an otherworldly feeling to the photo.
