I love the length of the image, it really adds drama to the flame. You lose some resolution in the top of the image. I love the dynamic motion that you can almost see in the still. That is pretty hard to convey.
Very cool and unique cropping of this photo. That really makes this photo I think. The column is in decent focus! The spiral on the right hand side is very interesting as well.
Very cool flame image. Good focus and motion freeze. I have to agree that the darker vortex on the right side really adds a focal point that draws the eyes.
Art: The contrast between the background and the fire is fantastic for this image, and the swirling vortex captured is also really well done.
Flow: The flow is quickly understandable and recognized.
Photographic technique: The focus used is great the lines of the flames are fully captured.
Good work team!
The fire contrasts really well with the background. I love how you can see every little streak of the flame. Great visual fluid flow.
1. The image is artistically very interesting and the bright orange is great!!
2. The fluid physics are well shown.
3. The photographic technique is very good.
The spiral you captured inside the macro-flames is very interesting aesthetically appealing. The image is well-resolved and the focus is sharp but you may consider removing the little blemish on the left and cropping the bottom of the image up just a bit to make the flames flush with the bottom of the frame.
great contrast and sharpness on the photo. The spiral on the side is really gives a neat appearance of the fire rolling upwards.
Awesome photo, I love the bright orange colors. The vortex on the right is beautiful, draws your eye right in. I love that you can see a yellowish to orange gradient. Very nice clear image, good focus.
Very nice image! The cropping/framing is really nice, and suites the flow nicely. The flow structures are quite clearly seen, especially the vorticies on the right. The exposure is right on, full contrast range in the flame over a flat black background.
The streaks of fire are well illustrated. I really like the vortex on the right side and how you can see the change of color in the flame as it rises.
Great capture of this vertical column of fire. Details are very crisp and the vibrant fire looks fantastic against the pure black background.
The focus of this photo is amazingly clear and the flames are beautiful. I really like the spiral effect on the right side of the image.
Great color and contrast. Interesting to see how calm the flame is. Nice vertical, centered image. No distracting elements. Awesome detail and focus.
WOW!! the focus and that spiral, Incredible. I really like the contrast beautiful.
Wow! Nice photo! The flow is nice and clear, the boundaries of the flame are really crisp, awesome awesome flame picture. I like how you can see the flame curling on the right.
Art: Really awesome spiraling of the flame
Flow: Flow is clearly illustrated
Technique: Great contrast between the fire and the black background
This column of fire is gorgeous. The contrast and focus are excellent, and the rolling fire towards the center adds nicely to the image. The fire looks silky smooth, wonderful image.
