Captured on the Isle of Grain near Kingsnorth Power-station. Not the prettiest of places to capture an image, although I found this one rather appealing.

Thank you for all your most flattering and most welcoming comments and votes following yesterdays upload.

Who could resist pointing the lens at sky like that, Nathan, no matter where you were: wonderful colour and the silhouettes of the power lines and pylon sitting starkly against it do make for a rather different sunrise/sunset to the norm, the bird adding an element of grace to whole scene.

A clever title for this one, Nathan, a glorious sky, and the bird making that extrra special touch. Very well captured. Carol

Beautiful sky mate and the bird is a masterstroke.

A beautiful fiery sky Nathan. Not too sure about those pylons though, but then I have a hate campaign with pylons just now. But I do see where you are coming from. Moira

Strong colour and strong shapes, Nathan. I would maybe have cropped out the LH pylon and the top wire for a more simple composition but I think there are a few variations possible and from an aesthetic point of view the decision remains with you.

Just fantastic Nathan, a mind like yours will capture the simplest of pictures
and turn it into a master piece……..This has the idea and you have been there
done that……….

Wonderful simple image with beautiful colour and tone. V3 has it for me. GrinGrinGrin

Excellent work again Nathan, I do feel V3 is the better one although the difference to V2 is very subtle. A lovely sky and the inclusion of the bird make this a cracker. (Hope you are well after your visit to the dentist, NOT my favourite place to visit).
