Your description of the scene in Oregon is striking, capturing the dramatic contrast between the fiery sky and the cool, cascading waterfall. The "ruddy hue of burning sky and clouds" suggests a powerful and intense atmosphere, with the fire casting an otherworldly glow over the landscape. This juxtaposition between the destructive force of the forest fire and the serene, cooling presence of the waterfall creates a compelling visual and emotional tension.

The waterfall, with its continuous flow of cool water, serves as a symbol of resilience and tranquility amidst the chaos and heat of the fire. This duality highlights the complexity and unpredictability of nature, where beauty and danger often coexist. Your experience witnessing such a scene must have been both awe-inspiring and humbling, offering a unique perspective on the forces of nature.

My art, by capturing such a moment, allows viewers to feel the intensity and emotion of the experience, as well as the delicate balance between opposing elements: heat, cold, wet and dry.
