No. 193: Roob's birthday

Happy birthday Ruth! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

No. 192: Cakey candles

 I had to do a bit of a quick one tonight as I've been running around getting some last minute items for Ruths birthday tomorrow, so it seemed appropriate to shoot these lit birthday candles. Happiest of all the candles.

No. 191: Cooking on gas

Today's photo; the flames from the hob. All nice and blue. I kept the exposure low on this one to just capture the blue flame. Oh and thanks Ruth for suggesting this one today, I was a little stumped as to what to take at short notice.

'til tomorrow.....

No. 190: Burn baby burn.

I managed to get this shot using my trusty, if not a little rusty, chiminea. The flames look organic, I think I might try this subject again on a longer exposure and get some strange effects.

'til tomorrow....

No. 189: Photo flicker.

Today's fire pic: candle flame. I tried to get a shot of the flame flickering rather than just slowly burning to. I blew on the candle just enough not to blow it out altogether, but enough to get the flame dancing around. Using the burst shot on my camera also helped quite a bit.

'til tomorrow....

No. 188: Flamin' eck!

This week, FIRE! I thought that I might start with an easy one; matches. The flame looks dramatic as the it bursts from the match head. Ruth wasn't too happy that I'd used half the box of matches, oooops!

'til tomorrow....

No. 187: Picture Perch-fect

First off apologies for the post title it seemed a good idea at the time. We all went to Perch rock in New Brighton this morning to get some fresh sea air and so that I could shoot the last picture for this weeks watery theme. More photo's next week.

'til tomorrow.....
