06 Dance of the Flames

Quail Creek, AZ

Shot while sitting around the fire and enjoying a beautiful spring night.
I liked the square hole shape it formed here.

Quite nice and welcome looking! Makes me wonder how that glass of adult beverage you sat down out of frame would look had it been included. 🥃 🍺 🍷 Paul

Dave - Thanks. I have shot these flames before with my camera. They tend to come out quite similar, and no one shot is like another. The flames are always dancing about in different shapes . With the camera, I can more easily adjust the shutter speed, which also changes the feel of the photo. I can also adjust, within limits, the gas flow of this pit so that can produce bigger or smaller flames.

I'll find some camera shots and put one in pending.

That's really good. I like the reflection. I wonder how the image captured by a camera would look in comparison and how many tries would be needed to nail it.
