 THANKS FOR ALL THE VOTES. THIS IS MY HUSBAND WORKING. I COULD NOT POSE HIM TO GET A BETTER SHOT. I USE A TELEPHOTO LENS TO GET CLOSE TO THE ACTION WITHOUT GETTING BURNED.

This is an excellent shot! Wonderful composition and color, and the flying sparks really do add "spark" to the image. Nicely done, great score, and nice finish, too!

Love the color play of the shirt, gloves and background versus the dullness of the mask and object being welded. The smoke adds interest to the sparks. Congratulations on your top 20 finish.

Thissi a great idea for this challenge. The image is a bit cluttered though and so the subject gets somewhat lost.

I think this shot might be much improved with a longer exposure, to highlight the sparks more. Just a stop or two, to be compensated with aperture or a neutral density filter. Still, I like it.

well-composed image! Flame reflection in the welders mask would make this picture perfect. Really love those sparks.

I like the stop-action quality of this shot and the vivid colors! Very nice! It seems like there just a bit of fuzziness on his shirt and facemask.
