Hi,

I've got a bit of an odd request, and something that goes against the usual grain of discussion that happens in many parts of this forum.

I'm working on a photo project for the dance/cabaret group my wife and I are involved in. It's a Circus-themed photo shoot to generate interest for their next show, and to generate some fresh content for their website. One of our singers decided that her "character" for the show is a fire eater or fire breather - but of course, she's not actually a trained fire eater. So we took some photos where I we emulated the pose and lighting as if she was blowing fire, with the intention of adding the fire later.

I've looked through iStock and some other sites for some fire I could add, but didn't really see anything that would work well. I also have some fire-dancer shots that I've taken myself in the past, but those performers just danced with torches and didn't blow fireballs, so it's not quite what I'm looking for. I didn't want to just swipe something off the web without permission. So, I'm looking for someone who will let me use the fireball from their fire-eater photo to composite into this shot:

Late to the thread…
IIRC, the only fire breathing (?) images I have, are on B&W film and quite old, sorry ;)

Thanks Rene.

Well, I bought a microstock shot for the main component, and used a few bits and pieces from other fire shots that I've taken in the past to fill it out.
