Alex, why do you use lighter fluid? A 9V battery pressed against the wool will set it alight!

Also i like the last one :D No tunnels where i live so its the kind of shot im always wanting to get!
 
;i never had a battery with me and it was fairly windy will try that one next time. Thank you ;)
 
Don't think I will get the kids to do that one then perhaps I will stick to sparklers for just now! lol

The effect is pretty amazing though and there are a few tunnel style bridges around where I live might have to employ my husband for the evening.

Surprised they allowed that at the location you did it. No.1 I mean. (I'm saying nowt btw)
 
Number 3 stands out for me. I've seen a lot with perfect circles in the middle, but I really like the chaos in number 3.
