This is the same lightbulb I used in my perspective IV picture. I put a match inside the light bulb and then positioned another match, outside the lightbulb and directly behind the one on the inside. Then with one hand on the shutterbutton and one hand holding a burning match, I lit the match and as it flared up, took the picture.

The liquid around the base of the light bulb is water with red food coloring in it. I added it just to add some color and extra uniqueness to the photo!

Post-Processing:
-First I did Levels adjustment
-Second I did Hue/Saturation adjustment and increased the red and yellow tonalities.
-and lastly I cropped, resized and saved for the web.
