Are you a Boy Scout then?

I like the last 3

Last 2 I really like

Last one, inverted I presume, is ace

If you invert the penultimate one, and in Levels set it to 120, 0.7 and 255 - I think that's ace too

Well done

Ging gang goolie n all

:lol:

Very cool :)

[DiddyDave]

I've shot fire (badly) a few times pre digital - on the back of these though, I may well have another crack for the 'arty' side of me

So thanks for yet more inspiration

No worries! I will post any exif data, unless its already attached...

I like those . I presume four was slow shutter speed, but how did you get five to look like that?

Under exposed, very fast shutter
Even less exposure in raw mode
Set it to the "coolest setting" in raw? ie, drag the slider to the blue section...

[turbotoes]

Ah, got yah. Looking again (having been told!) I can see the underexposed remains, and of course fast shutter to freeze the leaping flame. Thanks.

Post anyway, to make it easier for all interested in being 'fired' with inspiration

1/8000 sec! FFS, wouldn't something around 1/1000th-1/1,500th sec and a much lower ISO have been higher quality?

Or is fire really that quick?

:lol:

Haven't a clue, I just twiddle the knobs, push the buttons and hope for the best!!!

Is that a quote from Homer Simpson ???

:lol::lol::lol:

Seriously though, I think you'd find you would freeze fire at 1,500 sec, which at ISO 100 is as near as damn-it the same exposure as you've already done - it just means that there'd be less noise and thus a higher quality image if you wanted a juicy big print

A neighbour of mine, who I care not for, is away next week - so I'll torch his house and see if I can get some nice fire shots too

:D
