One from my first attempt at photographing fire. It's far from perfect but I hope you like it! Handheld with Canon 7D & Tamron 90mm.

Great time at Jerome Hamilton's Canon Workshop on photographing motion. Worked with professional fire spinners, Faegann Harlow and Chris to get these shots. They're awesome performers!

A fire out back on a July evening. It is interesting to see the motion and the texture of the flames, captured in a picture!
Taken during the opening ceremony of Kuwait's February Festival 2009.

It's almost sad to watch a huge roaring fire burn itself down to just a few glowing embers.
And yet, the last moments of any fire's life are so glorious and beautiful. :)
January, from The Poet's Calendar
"Janus am I; oldest of potentates;
Forward I look, and backward, and below
I count, as god of avenues and gates,
The years that through my portals come and go.
I block the roads, and drift the fields with snow;
I chase the wild-fowl from the frozen fen;
My frosts congeal the rivers in their flow,
My fires light up the hearths and hearts of men."
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
4th June 1939 a major fire in Clacton resulted in the complete destruction of the Public Hall in pier Avenue, together with a number of the towns shops such as Lewellens,
The driver of this car was sat inside on his mobile phone.
I ran accross the road and told him I thought it was going to catch fire and to get out.
[he said it's only a couple of drops of oil on the exhaust]
I think another couple of minutes and my baked spuds will be done.
A triptych of images that I shot while experimenting with our Lampe Berger. I had originally only intended to post the image on the right. But, I really liked the one on the left too, so I decided to post that one as well. The center image was added for balance.
Clouds of thick acrid smoke seen billowing from a huge fire at a former waste recycling plant in Deptford, Sunderland.
The fire was at the Alex Smiles Recycling Depot on the banks of the River Wear. The smoke could be seen for miles around and I saw one photograph, taken from Whitby, some 70 miles down the coast, and the plume of smoke can be clearly seen!
