This shot was done in a studio with a 4x5 camera on Kodak 100 slide film. I picked matches out of the books for awhile. Then I took some of the matches and taped them to the back of the lighters.After I had everything set the way I wanted I lit the matches and started shooting. #7618William Moore May 26, 2019
