Interesting perspective, it gives the flame a nice dynamic feel
The glow from the flame is really nice and I really like the dancing flame.
Nicely wrapped frame! I might consider black and white, but the motion is very nice.
Cool image. I like the way the flame is wrapping around and framing the ice ball. Great focus. Could be cool if you darkened a bit.
Nice vortex. Good example of flow through the flame. Good focus, this shot came out nicely.
Great image, I love the blue flame at the bottom contrasting with the orange flame at the top.The lighting and focus are excellent and the gradient in the background is great.
Nicely captured image. Good lighting and focus.
I wonder if a faster shutter speed would resolve the flame slightly more.
It is interesting how the flame circles around the ice ball.
Awesome capture. I like the natural flame. Its neat to see the fire form around the ice ball. Composition is good too.
Interesting image. I like the shape of this flame, and the different colors in the flame.
I definitely see the wishbone shape you mentioned, the flow here is a bit different than the others in the group
Nice gradient from the concrete to black.
I admire that the ice ball is slightly obscured by the activity of the flame which is clearly present in this image.
Nice colors in the image. The top of the flame is a little out of focus. Did you up the saturation or contrast a lot? The highlights are very defined which makes the flame look a little fake. Maybe back down on the post-processing to keep it natural looking.
The gradient from the concrete into the background is great, and the flame has some good color composition.
I like the way the flame seems to dance. It’s reminds me of a dancer (the ice) wearing a dress (the flame). The centered image works well here.
I love the flower shape of the flame. It’s a little blurry up at the top of the flame, but otherwise, great image!
I like the vortex of the flame that you’re getting off of the ice. You can really see what’s going on in the setup with your image, which is nice
Nice colors, I like how the only area illuminated is from the ice ball.
Cool wishbone shape. I like the life you captured in this image.
really unique shape! the photo is really cool looking and came out really good
Awesome colors. I really like the choice to introduce motion blur to capture the flow.
I like the lighting here, and the curls in the flame are really interesting.
