dom1 1 Posted November 8, 2014 I live on the island of Maui, Hawaii where much of the central valley is planted in Sugar Cane. Prior to harvesting, the cane is burned to remove the leaf, and the remaining stalks are brought to the mill to extract the sugar. I woke early a couple days ago and looked out the window to see this fire and full moon. The cities of Wailuku and Kahului are at the right. Aloha. Link to comment
gregverena 342 Posted November 8, 2014 Maui that voted to ban gmo's? Congrats!!I guess with so many volcanoes spewing fumes into the air, a few cane fields can't do much more harm- however, it is of note that sugar is polluting even in it's harvest.Beautiful shot, though!G Link to comment
alfbailey 3 Posted November 8, 2014 It's a very compelling shot. The moon and the tree alone against that night sky make for great subjects, but then we have the burning fields that adds further interest and maybe a more sinister mood.Very well done! Regards Alf Link to comment

GailAnthonyHarmer 6 Posted December 4, 2014 Such a beautiful sight Dom. I was not aware of the processes used before taking the cane to the mill. Perfect timing for you. Excellent detail, one really must view larger to truly appreciate. Link to comment
