post fire silhouette

Some of the fire burnt so hot last summer that there is no recovery to be had.
This photo was actually pretty blah until I got onto it with Silver Effex (after watching a tutorial, thanks Adam Williams) and substituted a dramatic sky (thanks Serge Ramelli). All my own pics though.
I think the photo/pic now communicates the drama and terror of the fire better than the original shot.
If you look on black, this actually has a white frame...

Fabulous on black. Shame about the destruction caused by the fire though. :-(

This is magnificent Wylie, it sure added so much drama to a sad situation. The fire almost looks as if it is still raging!
