The burning arc is a bit of a modern sculpture at the site of the former Bethlehem Steel Works in Pennsylvania.
Here's a wider view of the steel stacks...

What editing did you do to it, BOAB? And where was it taken?

 

[Doseone]

I really like that (and not just because there's a Springer in the picture!). I like the editing, except for the kind of glow effect round the main tree.

It was taken on a recent hike across ashdown forest in the mud and rain. It is all done inside my mobile phone. The 'editing' was done inside the phone using an app called picsay pro from googleplaystore. This is one of three shots taken by the HDR camera app I have in the phone. However because the dog was moving the HDR image (combination of all three exposures) had some 'ghost images' . As such I used the middle exposure from the HDR app origionals file, and messed around in picsaypro. Took five minutes.

Brilliant photo.
I really like the effects and colours. And of course the springer.

I messed around in the phone a bit more and tried to reduce the glow around the tree trunk. The sky is over exposed still but I don't know how to change that..any better?

I have an HDR image of this shot as well. In that image the sky is properly exposed as is the forground ..except the dog who was moving so the water ripples show up on the dogs body, weird) If I could combine the two shots, this one and the HDR image using the HDR sky and the non HDR (thisone) image for the dog/forground with aseemless join that would make the image much better I think. I have no idea how to do that in my phone apps. Im guessing using layers in photoshop might be the answer but I dont have it and dont know how to drive it...any guidence much appreciated...this shot may be worth going through th elearning curve for.

This is hdr image I refer to above
