Piping bag nozzles...

I had fun with this week’s challenge. After hunting round the kitchen for something interesting to photograph I stumbled upon a baking blowtorch and thought that it would make a good subject. I’d not used it in a while so had forgotten how to use it and it had no gas. I found the refill canister and had several attempts at refilling it. I finally got enough gas inside and worked out how to make it work. I was conscious of the fact that I’d got plastic utensils hanging up as the flame at one point was quite big and before I knew what was happening I had a fire in the sink! All the unused fuel that had been expelled from the canister from my failed attempts at refilling had been ignited by the flame 🔥. This was a very scary moment and put me off trying again to take a picture of it. This image of the piping bag nozzles was a much safer option. This is my second fire whilst photographing items for the macro Monday theme so no more hot items for me. Enjoy and HMM
