wow ! that's wonderful ! good luck author !

scary

nicely done

High res is great.

that's awesome what did you do it with?

Thank you for asking outbackjack...
Here we go...
I took 6 cotton swabs,cut the heads off (to keep only the cotton because on my first try the plastic melt & the result wasn't very good) so..i place them on iron wire pieces that i cut & hold them with power tape on the edge of a table.
I place a mirror under them (i lift it a little bit so the pieces of the wire are not visible on the photo,i wanted only the flames to be visible)& from the same wire i cut some pieces to create the word FIRE & align them with the flames so they look like they are on fire.
I had only one chance at a time(before the cotton burned out) so i try it about 10 times (i had to cut brand new cotton pieces,pull out the burned ones,place the new ones back & light them up again,to make the proper settings on my camera,focus,aperture,f number etc).
Manual focus
F:8.0
1/250 shutter speed
Spot metering
Iso 100
Rotate the photo vertically & horizontally in PS so the reflection becomes the main image & the letters are visible(because "FIRE" looked like "ERIF" cause it's a reflection)
I hope i helped

I keep coming back to this entry. Honestly my favorite so far. It's kind of unfair though. I mean, this is really good and tough to compete with so most of us probably won't stand a chance.

Hats off to you . Grt.

How you didn't win is beyond me.

Surprising and interesting too.

wonderful, great detail and colour.

Is this Ade's wife cooking?

You certainly captured the heat intensity in this shot well done

Violent. I also love it the way you love it.
