Landscape Smokey Mountain Afternoon

Smokey Mountain Afternoon · **1 Like**

Here is a recent photo I took on a mountain top in Arizona overlooking the town below. It was a smokey day as there are forest fires in the area of the location. Beautiful landscapes like this make me excited to go north for the winter. I was going for a certain mood with this edit, I am interested to see how it fairs around here.

You've gotten the cloud shadows.
But the stand-out to me is the juxtapositioning of the dead wood snag--natural--with the "metal snags" (artificial) in the background. Makes for a stark contrast, when I view it.
Good interest; good story.
Angky.

It is a very nice landscape, but I can't imagine why anyone would want to come up here for our miserable {snowy} winters - at my age now, my parents went South during them
