If that's the current forest fire in James Bay, the winds have brought the smoke all the way down to South of Ottawa. The smog alerts are for all of Eastern Ontario. That sure is a beautiful site, though the smoke looks ominous, even if the fire is hundreds of miles away. Beautiful shot, Don. Regardless of the tragic situation.
This is great. I especially like the set up of this photo. I very much like that the home is to the right and you have allowed the space to the left so that you focus on the scene from that angle. Colors are wonderful, very well done.
I'm enjoying the optical illusion, created by the smoke, that makes the far left tip of the land appear to be floating in gray space. Your angle on the scene also makes me jealous of the owner, wishing I had a place like this to call home. Looks like a great place to live.
