 Ryan Magnumphotography, and I met Cory, the fire guy, at Carnivale Lune Bleue this past year when we caught part of his act, and he gave us his business cards. So of course I called him up when Fire came up! I was hoping to get him breathing a big ball of fire and me lighting cig off of that, but went with lighting one from his juggling clubs instead. Shot for a few hours, had lots of fun, and I got my shot - a classy dame getting a light!

This is a fun shot and the lighting the cigarette off of it was a hoot! On what is the torch reflecting? Did it reflect in your lens filter, or is there a window there? It must have been a blast!

A fire juggling act ? A little overexposed IMO, try to tone down the exposure to get more details in the flame, 6
