 My boyfriend came with this idea. He wanted to light his finger, so he sprayed it with deodorant and then I lit it. The lighting set up was pretty easy; we put some lamps on the ground and directed them at the hands. This photo was made with the finger pointing up, so the flame would be straight.
In the post processing we turned the image 90degrees, reduced the noise and changed the colours/ curves and contrast a little.

Interesting idea, but the picture looks a little weird with that filter it looks like you used. Also would have been cool if the paper was on fire, it's kind of a tease.

This picture seems photoshopped, and there's no exciting factor in this picture.

Idea, plan, execution. All well done. Rotating the image to landscape is clever.

Excellent idea, but the image is a bit soft (out of focus).
