 This did not end up like I had envisioned. I spent the better part of Sunday out at a location (the same place I got this entry), and I could not get it right. ARRRGGGGHHHH!

This was one of my test shots I did in my basement studio beforehand...I had such a cool photo in my mind's eye, and this is the closest approximation I could do. Sorry. :-(

So, 19 votes in and totally middle-of-the-road, sigh. Both comments want more flames...me, too!

Also, I wonder if...anyone will get the title. It's a reference to the Avatar.

Nope. As disappointed with the result as I am with the image. Could have been soooooo much better. And no-one's ever seen Avatar?

Good work. A tad underexposed.

Very mysterious , the lighting is very good if only the flames were a little larger to add a little more drama to the shot. 7

very interesting. A slightly bigger flame would have made this superb.
