I was waiting for the clouds to clear a little to get some burning sky for the last 5 days. Today I got lucky, but not lucky with finding the right location to take the shot. Some roads were closed due to flooding so I really had to take this shot over the fence. Will try again.

Nice mood. I like the colors and the detail in the sky. I think the fence fits quite well, otherwise it would be an idyllic overkill

I love the theme of this, whether it was something you were going for or not. Having the razor wire fence with a beautiful scene on the other side basically saying, I'm here, but you can't come in. Powerful. Or am I reading too much into this?

The sky is amazing, but I would like to see a little more detail in the hillside. Still seems a little dark.

Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work

John

Hey John - you've read the photo just as my thoughts were when I was taking it.

Thanks for the comments.

That sky is awesome I would have to agree a bit more detail in the hill side would be nice, and perhaps a tad more sharpening.

Thanks for sharing

Ditto on this shot for me. You really got some great sky detail. The razor wire gives me bad dreams though. You live in a war zone or something. LOL
