Description
Taken around the time of the Sugar Mill photo, this shows controlled burning of harvested sugar cane fields. Taken from a moving car, the detail isn't too great, but having just driven through a dark and rainy area, I thought it looked fairly dramatic.
Thanks for viewing!

"...Now in the falling of the gloom
The red fire paints the empty room:
And warmly on the roof it looks,
And flickers on the back of books.
Armies march by tower and spire
Of cities blazing, in the fire;
Till as I gaze with staring eyes,
The armies fall, the lustre dies.
Then once again the glow returns;
Again the phantom city burns;
And down the red-hot valley, lo!
The phantom armies marching go!..."

...if one uses their imagination a bit -- this could be a tornado touching down - with the stalk coming in from the left! --- either way it's a very moving image!

When sugar was flourishing in Hawaii, I've seen a lot of these control fires. This picture brings back old memories. Thanks for sharing. Aloha

In Hawaii the pot growers would be scrambling to save their plants that they grew along side of the sugar cane. Nice contrasty image between smoke and sky here...a beauty!

----) Is it only me or does anyone see a guy with a cowboy hat with his face turned to the right a little in the smoke on the right?
