Wow, you got them to sit that still for 8 seconds? Good for them and for you!

I've taken a few shots with glowing tents. I'll have to take more. :)

Very interesting look. Did you do any HDR/tone mapping to this one?

a great study here...I love the long exposure and the sparks...I lould have liked a bit more height and a little less on the bottom as far as composition, but other than that...brilliant 9

the fire looks like some fireworks - are you trying to make a forest fire - otherwise good job - 6

Cool! I wonder what the tent is lit by it is really bright. I can't decide if I find the tent destracting or a great balancing object for the two men and the fire. Well shot though.

Nice work, I like the overall feeling of the shot, but would prefer if the tent were just a bit less white.

Great shot of what I love to do most. Love the fire and the sparks that are coming off the top. Great colors and nice composition.
