this image has been edited to have the contrast up higher. it reminds me of the fire painting images i have done as well.
I know it's been far too long since I last posted, work has been so busy and all that kinda usual stuff. Just got back from Reading Festival, took the camera and the nifty fifty and have got a handfull of shots I was happy with, this is the first two of them.
I spent about half an hour sat around the fire at 2am taking different types of shot to get the best effect from the flames I could and this is the best of the bunch I had.
This is kinetic photography, so called because to obtain these shots I have utilized not only handheld camera movement but I have also thrown my camera into the air, spinning it and tumbling it, hopefully catching it, and sometimes dropping it.
For those of you who have followed this series you will remember that I have dropped this camera many times now, and finally dropped it while throwing it high into the air outside, failed to catch it, and it hit the concrete and cracked open.
The little camera, after all of this hideous abuse to obtain this type of art, still works! So now I am willing to take greater and greater risks with it in order to push the envelope and make as dramatic a photograph as I can.
These four shots were made this morning by candlelight, and one photo is of a fiber optic lamp.
You can see more of these types of kinetic photographs in my set titled “Flux Velocity:”

This is, as one may already suspect by reading the title, a flame of a torch.
Oh, by the way: it is *not* edited.
I created this for the subject of opposites for my Blackthorn Photography course.
