For hot food :o)


This was an outtake for last week DPC's challenge - silverware... Should have posted this one instead of the other one I did submit (which scored below average :o(..)

This is a fork, a flashlight and a burning newspaper (Morgunblaðið to be exact híhí)....


How did I do it...
I took a black piece of paper for the background - laid the fork on it, took a huge flashlight and made it lit the head of the for - put a fire in a small piece of a newspaper which I laid behind the fork.... started shooting - at first there was a fire behind the fork but after a few seconds it turned into smoke and voila :o) The only thing I did in post work was adjusting the wb so the smoke would turn a little more bluish and I sharpened the picture after I resized it... :o)

So are you (LOL - I know you are referring to the picture - thanks :o)

greynine pro replies:
well, yes, I was referring to the picture but I would never confine it to that. ;-) thank you.

at first sight I was wondering if a real hot fork, eg. used when checking pasta for being al dente, could produce such steam, but then I read your description and, well, I knew better...
thank you for sharing.

haha - fór reyndar illa fyrir mér þessa vikuna - sendi mynd inn og hafði bætt vignetti á hana, reyndar það litlu að ég kroppaði það svo í burtu (vissi ekki að það mætti ekki) og hún var dæmt úr leik :o( Eins gott að finna gott motív í næstu viku...
