Description
Update: My 4th DD!
Thanks a bunch to =kuma-x for the suggestion and to ^Anoya for the feature! Very kind of you both!
Thanks for all the comments and support on this one guys. Things like this keep dA good fun for those who persist through the quiet times.
Nomination, Photography Masters Cup, Nature, 2011.

Yep, another great title.
8 sec. Custom white balance.
We spotted this on the way home from a day of swimming and hiking in Litchfield National Park. This place is just immense and full of waterfalls and watering holes. Apparently the park rangers burn out dead wood and shrubbery this time of the year, right after the rainy season, to help minimize forest fires later in the season. A pretty cool sight to stumble across in the middle of nowhere! Had to stop for a quick snap.
Litchfield National Park, Northern Territory.

Wow, that looks awesome and the archade-like trees do dive a really good frame. Also, very interesting to use fire to prevent fire...

It looks so foreboding and scary, yet beautiful at the same time. I love the colors, & the silhouettes of the trees against an orange sky. Totally deserves that DD.

It's a beautiful scene, it's a good thing the fire was with good intention, at first i thought " OH NO A FOREST FIRE D: " we do that too in my areas. Amazing how you got every detail of the trees in the awesome lighting. Congratulations on the Daily Deviation!
