This image shows the effect of burning different mediums and the various spectra of light they produce. This is table salt and ethyl alcohol. The little sparks of light are actually particles of salt igniting, creating a particle effect. The alcohol produces the blue flame and the salt produces the yellow/orange flame.

Wow, this looks like a rain of fire. Very cool and scary.
What was your ISO? The image appears a tad grainy towards the middle.
The texture of the foil gives this image a cool effect. The streaks are interesting to look at.
I love the colors in the photos
It was really creative to use the table salt to make orange sodium flames!
The shapes and colors in the background are really interesting. It looks like the image is from another world.
I like the aluminium pan in the background. It makes the reflections look really cool.
Very cool, I wouldn’t know what I was looking at without explanation since it’s so close up (not a bad thing!). Did you crop the image in a lot?
