Fire makes me happy in the pants.

When twilight draws near, when you are pushed to the very limits of your soul, when it seems that all you have left are the dead remnants of the fabric of your life:

Oh, these are gorgeous. Large amounts of fire are so very photogenic.

reckless thoughts abide; anachronistic and impulsive.

I think some of them could use a bit of sharpening. As well as they could all use a little less watermark... if you're going to watermark a photo, try adding a border and slapping it in the border so it doesn't take away from the photo.

2, 3, and 4 are cool, especially 4... 2 is an interesting close up. You must know someone to be able to tag a long on a burn?

Im not quite sure how you sharpen Fire, When almost all these shots were taken through the heat of the fire. IE the subject was in the middle of there fire so the heat was "bending the light and image". But next fire i go to If i have my cam on me I will make sure to try to do just that. One of the difficulties with this burn was it was late at night so i had to use an high ISO. Made things a bit noisie for my tastes. As for the Sig I might play around with a border next time. But i though i did a decent job placing them in a semi non distracting place.


As for being able to tag along. Most of the time if you can find out about it Ask your fire company if you can follow along. Belive it or not the offer to give them the photos is likely more then enough. Or if ya really want to join your local volunteer fire company. You can meet some cool people that way and do some fairly cool things.

Not to be a dick, but I'm pretty sure you sharpen it the same way you'd sharpen any other photo... in post.
