Yay!!! I'm first again!!! You've completely blown the rule of thirds out the water haven't you!! This is a great choice not to follow that rule. I love the negative space and your processing is great as usual. I particulary enjoyed yesterdays post as well. The colour of the red crossover (i'm guessing) made the water have the same colour tinge. Great work.

@Colour blind: Rules were meant to be broken....just don't tell my kids that.

Looks like a grand forest fire. But the shoot is cool.

What a gorgeous sky! It does look like there was a fire going on behind the trees reflecting up into the sky.
Beautiful shot with the silhouettes in front. :-)

I disagree (although, yes, the rules can be broken sometimes). I think while the image is good, it could be improved by moving the tower to one of the sweet spots at either the left or right third of the frame or by moving it to the extreme edge on either side of the frame. It will make the composition much more dynamic. I do like that the horizon line is at the bottom of the composition to emphasize the sky and the tower. Just my two Abe Lincolns.
