    The flames are great, although I would have preferred if the top flame was more centered and focus to make it the star of the photo.

    Not sure how I feel about the single flame that is floating above the rest. Great job on the pitch black background

    I like the post editing that you’ve done to this and the flame at the top is very interesting! cool!

    I love the way the jumping flame creates a sort of illusion of symmetry.

    The blue of the flame is mysterious and the precisely control of the combustion made the jump of the fire.

    Great depiction of the flames and I like this everything other than the flames is black which really makes the flames pop out and catch the viewers eye. I would suggest cropping it in a way so that the flame at the top was is not in the middle and ideally at the i/3 point.

    The jumping flame is almost magical in this picture. I really enjoy how you can see the red flame tops as well as the blue bottom strip. It really stands out. I really like the diffusion flame.

    The bursting flame is so cool! How did you manage to get the fire to do this.

    Great Idea. The fire is clear and looks nice. The image editing is great. Adding another thing to the picture would make it nicer. Great work.

    good use of framing I liked that there is different regions of interest.

    I like how the fire looks like its lava almost and I also like how you can really see the blue flame at the bottom. I suggest making the image a little brighter.

    I like the shooting flame at the top. Good job balancing the colors in editing. However, consider using the slight symmetry to your advantage as the centerpiece seems a bit off.

  • I agree that the top flame is the focus of the photo. I like the dark colors and contrast!

    The flame looks awesome. The background helps to contrast the color of flame. The top flame helps a lot overall. Nice job!

    I enjoy that you made very different creative choices than your teammates. The jumping fire is very cool and the darkness of the background highlights it.

    Very nice colors! The deep oranges with subtle blues have nice contrast and depth in the image. What kind of camera were you using?

    I like the contrast on this photo. The black background really makes the fire pop, and after seeing the garage floor in one of the other photos, makes a real difference.

    Cool picture, the jumping flame is an interesting aspect. The blue at the bottom is a cool effect.

    The jumping flame looks really interesting and nice job capturing it before the flame disaperared. In the future it might be interesting to do some intense post processing to see if you can make the blue flames at the bottom pop a little more.

    Great flame colors! The black background creates great contrast. The blue line at the bottom is cool.

  • I like the darkness of this image. The color is a good change of pace from lighter colored fire. The capture of the jumping flame is impressive!

    I like the high contrast between the background and the flame. There is a lot of empty space and wonder if you could crop it differently.

    Nice job with the editing – the stark contrast between the black background and the light flame is really nice. Also, the clarity of the image and the softness of the flames work well together.

    The jumping frame looks really interesting, how is this possible? I like how dark this image is compared to your teammates’ pictures. Great job.

    Very vivid color of the flame, nice job editing. Very calming warm that comes from the photo. Enjoy the thin blue line at the bottom.
