Nice image, well composed and thought out.... #2248913Mike D January 03, 2006
Thanks for the comments... The procedure is quite easy to achieve actually, I had one strobe facing away from a black backdrop, then lit and blew out a new candle before the flame reached the wax part of the candle (lots of smoke)had the camera on manual focus and snapped away. Hope this helps... Mike #2249087Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
