This is a "Circus Man". He works in the street and makes his short performance during the stop light for money, so I had just few seconds each time to do my shots. I did around 60 shots to get just one photo, trying with diverses combinations of time and aperture. Tried in color, sephia and B&W and Finally I choose this one.
The process:
- Crop
- Contrast level +25
- Brightness level - 5
- Black and White
- Contrast Autofix
- Resize

What a difficult exposure you have attempted here. Looks like ya missed it though. Your highlights are way blown out and your dark bits are too dark.... Interesting subject though!

This is a tough one. Maybe a little fill flash would have helped to keep the flames from being so over-exposed - 4

Great Idea I think it would have been better if his face was not so washed out.
