We knew the bushfires were close to the world heritage park, Cradle Mountain. Seeing and smelling the smoke put our thoughts into perspective.

Glennie, the white is a key part of a silhouette… The crepuscular rays are excellent and the bits of detail in the water add well. I do wonder how some burning-in of the tree tops would look (knowing that doing so might reduce the strong sense of light flowing in from the upper right.) This is a nicely moody, you are here on the water view.
