 Cold blustery day plus a woodstove equals an opportunity to try for flame shots. That got me to thinking about fire being one of the first advancements of man and thus possibly man's first scientific achievement. Hopefully I won't get creamed by folks who don't find fire science-y.

Nice idea. Very creative. Good lighting and DOF. You might want to sharpen in photoshop it looks a little out of focus. 6.
