I put an ice cube on fire. Yay.. I love how glue is extremely flammable. I really didn't know what I was doing. I wanted the ice cube to melt a little more, so it would look more interesting.. but I couldn't get the fire to stay in the right place.

Not bad but, (don't you just hate those buts) the cropping seems a bit loose to me and the melting water on the tray or plate is a bit distracting. I know the ice melts as it gets hot but maybe if you had someone helping you and wiping up the water as you go? The coloration overall seems off to, not sure why. A 3
Interesting. The top of the flame looks a little out of focus or blurry. The lighting on the ice and pan has a strange cast to it that detracts from the photo somewhat. I like that your ice is an interesting shape and not a "standard" cube that you get out of your ice-maker.
Nice composition, even if the fire and ice subject was broached by more than 20 people this time! :o) I like the warm colors, but it says more fire than ice to me.
