 Ice on fire. I like this image because it also portrays the liquid nature of fire.

cleverly done, the flames seem a little soft to me but I like the colour you have captured :o)

would be better if you didn't chop off the top

I like the idea of the abstract here, but I think the mirror is complicating things by making it looks softer that I would like. I'm also missing the top of the flame to complete the mirror image above as it is below.

Just a slight clock-wise rotation would have made this feel more symmetrical, however, it is still a stunning piece of work. Well done :)

Ooooo! Neat! I love the concept and the execution is damn good. Maybe a little more contrast and saturation to bring out the flame but very cool.
Good setup! 8

beautiful reflection. i think the composition is a little too straight forward and it would be nicer to not have cut off the top but it's still nice overall. good luck.

nice work, but I don't like how the tip of the flame is showing on the bottom but not the top

If it were level, it would be less distracting. But still a good capture, you even got the blue fire. I tried this, but couldn't get it to work, so congrats!

Very nice shot, love the blues and subtle reds of the flame.

I like it. Was wondering if one of mine might have been an inspiration. I have tons of the alcohol on mirror photos. But I only have a couple posted here.
