This shot was done while playing around with the Slow Sync on the camera and the flash off camera. The first one was an
accident but after I saw what it looked like I got serious about making it work.
oh yes, Bob, very, very nice!
you are on to something here!

Fire makes one think of relaxing and I think that pose might strengthen the mood you are capturing here
Have fun with it
