 I punched a hole through a rose and carefully slid the sparkler candle through until it almost disappeared. The rose lost several pedals and singed many others before I got this shot. I actually thought the candle was a dud in the spark department until this shot.
Picture was cropped, exposure, levels, contrast adjusted. Neat Image applied, resized and sharpened.
