Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Autumn is a time when people on farming properties choose to burn rubbish.
Here is a small fire burning near a farm fenceline at Red Hill, Mornington Peninsula

Fire is beautiful but can also be destructive. Thanks for visiting...
Now that is a fiery red! :D Hope it didn't spread...Have a nice week ahead!

What a wonderful shot - nice composition.
Your haiku is spot on. Watching the dancing flames one can be transfixed. There is a certain beauty but I understood the opponents of open fires as well.
Mine's at Round The Bend.
that reminds me...there's so much wildfire in western US...CA and NV. Great shot...i can almost feel the heat.

Beautifully captured fire. Hope it is under control so it won't spread.
How very interesting!

I'll huff and I'll puff and blow the fire away :P
Great shot! Hot, hot fire...can feel the dryness in the air and the plants and earth...hang in there--cooler weather's coming!
Hope you are well, Gemma--
Love your poem about autumn is the bridesmaid....lovely, poignant.
Cheers,

flames can be so beautiful
it always amazes me how beauty and destruction can go hand in hand
Wow, talk about deja vu. This could be the site of a Texas ranch I visited about 18 months ago and the fire and brush burning there. Thanks for the nice reminder.
hope there's no wind so it won't spread....we also do that burning hays on harvest time....and its quite scary when it is windy.
what a cool shot!
u may view mine too here
Wow. Great capture.
spring and autumn are also times in crete when we do a lot of burning on farming areas - summer just gets too hot
hope your autumn is a happy one (as we near into summer!)
That´s a cool shot on something hot and red!!! ;)
