Flaming Christmas Pudding. Happy New Year for 2023!
Well, the 'spare' Christmas pudding's been put to good user on New Year's Eve! If you've ever tried photographing a flaming pudding, you'll know how that it's essentially impossible to get the exposure right for both the flames and the rest of the table at the same time. This shot is a digital combination of three exposures for the environment, with a not-on-fire pudding and 2 exposed for the flaming pudding itself, then combined using Affinity Photo by blending masks using the pressure-sensitive Apple Pencil and very low flow on the brush. This gives an incredible amount of control that's just not possible any other way. Wishing you all the very best for 2023 — thank you so much for all the support, faves and lovely comments, it's greatly appreciated.
