Bad Wind Rolling In

In 2015, Bastrop, Texas had huge fires...Although my town is SW of Houston, we had smoke blowing into our area!   And the horizon was glowing like the fire.  
I decided to make this  an abstract, which would enhance the smoke plume coming in like fog.

 Hope it's not too "wild" looking!frownsad

The colors in the sky look great, Lucy, and I'm enjoying the extra intrigue that the "stained glass window panes" add.  I find the gray "shadows" up top and on the left a bit distracting.

Do you mean the cluster of branches on both sides?  I can simplify them.
