devastation

This is a park only 200m from the city limit that was burned down last summer, unfortunately....

Oooh, I love this Dimitrios! Devastation complete and the shot certainly enhanced by the stormy sky and broken branch. Well done.

Beautiful shot. In nature it's all good. Not the destruction, the visual.

i think that the fire was a sad thing. But i do believe that sometimes beauty comes out of bad things. Take this image for example.

Devastation is nature's way of rebuilding!! Hard at the moment but making way for the new...clearing out the old...Happy New year...
The challenge - well, I always have the intention to get on board, Please God this time I do..
The broken branch looks like a directional signal - for lack of a better description of what I'm thinking of.
Thanks Dimitrios, for being you...and your inspration..
