Flowers and Flames

Nice and interesting concept!

I really like it! a different take on flower photography!

Thanks for the comments

digital rev did a video on this last week, pretty cool idea!

As an idea, try throwing different kinds of salts to get different colored flames without having to worry about changing the color of the flower

That is pretty friggin cool. Nice work!

Nice!

Did you get this idea from the digitalrev video :P?

Yep that is a cool shot


@clifference

Thanks for the idea. I'll have to remember that

Cool concept...Nice shots.

Really freaking cool. One thing I have to mention...I'm not a fan of the black background. Reason being, it's sort of blending in with the charred parts of the flower, to the point where it's a bit hard to actually get a sense of the extent to which the flower has been burned.

I was gonna suggest maybe using a white background. That seems like it'd probably make the flower stand out a bit more, and that'd also be an extra element of contrast in the image. But then I figured that probably wouldn't work, since the flame wouldn't stand out as well against a white background.

In any case, I love it. But I do think that the flower is blending in with the background a bit too much, and that's bothering me a little bit. It's not bothering me much, but it's bothering me a little bit.

Love it! The colors are awesome. Interesting idea!

As someone pointed out, you can toss various things on it to make the flames change colors --

I know of two ways to do this:

Get some sawdust add food coloring, toss on flame... voila.

Cool idea, great shots!
