 So many shots, none of them came out perfect. I'm not expecting a lot, but it was worth submitting.

Flash into umbrella to light up my son on camera left, flash under me (with CTO gel) to light me up. Flashlight in a red translucent bowl to make the fire.

Turned out to be super hard to get the fire to line up with my mouth, plus the right expression on two people's faces.

very funny stuff - that is kind of what I feel like when I am yelling at my kids - the flow of the fire is really well done

the only thing i dont like is the way the "fire" covers up the hand- it ruins the illusion.
