Challenge: Red III (Basic Editing)
Camera: Canon EOS-20D
Lens: Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM

Aperture: f 11.0
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/250 sec

 I saw a similar shot during one of our business presentations. I tried to emulate and enhance the shot. I find myself shooting with flash more often than with my continuous light AND more and more in manual mode.
Taken by bouncing light from a reflective umbrella to achieve the diffused light.
I hope I was able to communicate the image of a burning and sparkling fuse.

Clever. Would like it more if the tops of the rolls weren't visible.
