 im not sure i really have the right set up for the type of shot i am trying to do here... i dont have an actual macro lense so i use these cheap "macro" filters, and they are SO SOFT.... i think if i tried something clever with lighting it might be more effective also, but i snapped these real quick on my way to work one morning.

Very clever. I don't think I've seen one lit on fire here for a challenge lol. Looks fascinating.

Cool effect. I would be interested in seeing how these burn.

Very interesting take on what otherwise might be a typical shot!

It would be more interesting if the view was tighter on the burn. But, I'd classify this in the flower category.

Did you actually put this on fire? I would think so, seeing the smoke in the back.

Uhmmm, isn´t this a flower? Sorry but DNMC as far as I am concerned, should have entered in that other contest, cause it´s a good shot, great colors and I like the fire.

I didn't notice the burn or the smoke at first glance. After a second look, I very much like it. Nice job.
