What a moody sea. Like this picture a lot, as it evokes memories of chilhood trips in boats off of the Cornish coast. Lovely.

See, now these are fun! I'm of the "the subject doesn't have to be in focus" camp and this is an excellent example!

See, I like this. Especially since it's a kid, it shows a child's energy and exuberance!

He looks like he's thinking, "Do I really HAVE to do this?" Beautiful take though.

I like your OOBie approach to this challenge -- using the literal definition for "fire". The score is quite decent for an OOB shot too.

I like the shot and gave it a 7 for the brilliant colors. I'm not fond of the composition of the shot though. Not sure why, maybe too horizontal. I don't think it needs the sparkly noise, but I don't mind it.

This reminds me of some of those Icelandic sky shots. It might be fun to play with it in Expert Editing mode -- using the flames for the sky of some landscape.
