 Yes I've been a paying member for over a year now and this is only my second entry.

Oddly enough this is a bulding in the now shut down Outlet Village - so they really were burning the village! The fire department decided to burn the place down for training.

If you don't like it please let me know why - and don't be afraid to be brutally honest.

Thanks for looking :)

Even the blue sky is almost completely hidden. Sad sight!

Nice image. Feels very apocalyptic or like it could be in some movie. The flames look great, the structure is nicely capture - good focus and everything. I love the way the sky looks as its picked up smoke and heat from the flames. Very 'hellish' in my estimation. I sure hope no one was hurt in the making of this image! I gave a 6

This is a great shot!! I love how it shows the 'gloom and doom' that fire represents. The black smoke with the sky colors are awesome. Good job! 10
