Description In one of my trips, the road was covered with smoke from a fire nearby. I took it over saturated. I hope you all like it.

I love the mood of this, in my mind, the mood can change drastically, nature forms a big heart out of fire clouds... aww. wait, the animals are burning!!

I like it, although the photo itself has been manipulated a lot. Probably You You did what You had to to achieve this feeling of smoke, sky and road. Great idea.

wow , it looks awesome and scary at the same time. the colors look nice saturated, they emphasize the smoke and the odd mood of the shot. i also like how the road disappears in the smoke, and it really draws your eye...

very nice shot indeed !

This looks like the forest fires in Florida from a few years back.
I was driving down a stretch of highway like this durring those fires and the scene was so surreal.

you've made this scene look heavenly, rather than simply awe-inspiring as i'm sure it appeared from the road. a very good shot, and the oversaturation is very clean, not distracting... nice!

this is a really cool photo, the color of the smoke, and the trees at the bottom with the beautiful sky make a great contrast, its also really abstract to me, all the beauty then past the fire is this smokey smoggy area, gj gj +fav

Wow.. that's almost surrealistic. Or just superimposed. It looks like two pictures in one.. the first being the monochromatic orange-brown foreground and the second being the sky shot in back. It's amazing what circumstance and special features on a camera can do. Hehe.. the orange cloud dust would seem as if it came out of a Little House on the Prairie scene.. yet we have palm trees all over the place. And of course, we have a symphonic contrast of blue and orange, and I can even see hints of blue within the fire cloud, as odd as it seems. I love the flow of the piece as well. The trees to the left are sloping down in height, as are the cables, as are the poles, all the way to the little road-horizon at the bottom right. There's that streak of sunlight poking through the fire cloud, running almost perpendicular to the main slope. If that weren't enough, there's even a mostly-horizontal.. horizon.. on the.. horizon! I could get lost in these imaginary lines for a good ten minutes. Which is more than I have to spare, mind you One may think that the sky cloud all the way up top-left is out of place, but I think it fits just fine. Hey, it runs parallel to the horizon, anyway.

Excellent.
