This was not the photo I thought I shot. Contrary to appearances this was shot roughly an hour after sunset with the full moon in an otherwise dark and cloudy eastern sky. Prior to editing the photo it had a lovely blue tone from the camera settings used. I changed one little setting and the next thing I know I'm looking at a sky on fire. With the image quality not being all that great to begin with I decided to drag it through fotosketcher for the lack of anything else to do. That and I really didn't feel like posting another unseasonable flower shot so soon after the last one.

Enjoy and your comments welcomed.

I like this, it as great colours and a very nice effect that you have applied to this one.It like a water colour and i like it small and not blown up.When viewed as it is it looks more dramatic and like a forest fire,then you enlarge it then it becomes a water colour,if you no what i mean.Well done to a very nice piece of work my friend.

A very impressionistic looking result - like Monet painting a forest fire.

It looks like a Hank Williams "Settin' The Woods On Fire" kinda shot Wendell. Good use of editing skills.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.

What I like about this is the general overall color that you got. It does really look like the knight is on fire. I think you did well on this one but I did not see your "unseasonable flower shot" yet so I will have to do that LOL!
Great shot

Wendell, what can you say when your blunders look so much better than your honest attempts at artistic photography. This is a truly wondrous image.

I'm not afraid of dying. I just don't want to be there when it happens.
