Fire at the lake

A view of a controlled burn about 20 (+/-) depending on whether or not one is a crow. It's a bit messy with utility wires and poles, but I also like how they caught the sunlight.
I think the light on the wires is the best part of this photo!

Normally I use Touch/Retouch to remove power lines, but these are beautiful in the image.

I think the illuminated wires add a super touch of interest - I also like that they run more or less parallel to the plume of smoke. Also, a great POV! Nice capture.

Good to hear it is a controlled burn. I think the power lines add interest to the shot

I like the glow of those power lines

I love the sunny glow on the lines.

I am liking the way that he light is catching the wires.

Nicely caught light along the wires, nice one

Very nice shot

Good catch- the light is great. I'm always wary of those "controlled" burns. I've seen two of them go out of control rather quickly.

I love light on wires.

Great shot. Normally wires can detract from an image but in this case, they enhance it!

@grammyn I do like the light on them too.
@shutterbug49 Agreed Debbie. I usually try to take them out, but so many of them anymore. Hard to take a photo of a scene without them.
@cocokinetic The direction the wires run compared to the smoke is totally coincidence.
@onewing I agree Babs about the controlled burn.
@kjarn Thank you Kathy.
@jamibann Thanks Issi.
@pusspup Another one on the other side of town today. I feel like a smokejumper, inhaling all the noxious fumes.
@wakelys Thank you Sue.
@craftymeg Thanks Meg.
@bkbinthecity Thanks Brian.
@olivetreeann Thank you Ann. I've not heard of one getting out of control around here, but there's a first time for everything. Keeping my fingers crossed.
@haskar Thanks so much Hannah.
@mccarth1 I appreciate you saying that Kerry. Thank you.

Wow! I imagine the air quality is smoky!
March 15th, 2024  
It almost looks like the powerlines are on fire!

@thewatersphotos Very smoky around here the past few days.
@mcsiegle The fire and smoke were pretty far away. Just the sun on them.
