Burn and Shoot

Beach burning can be fun but without having the fuel it can kinda suck. 

Good thing I was going mostly for shooting and less for spinning, I did have a little spin using a friends fuel and the snakes got to burn this time around.

I was trying some new ways of shooting on the beach burn, My normal way of shooting the burns is to use a long shutter speed to get the tails of the flame but this time I wanted to shoot fast so I got the detail in the flame.

This was also the first time I got to use my wireless triggers. I shoot over 600 images and not one miss fire so I can tell you that they work very well. Only trouble I had was when I was not shooting the fire I had some focus issues but that was more to the fact that I did not have any light to focus on.

Most of the shots were shot at 1/200 at aound f/5.6,  Also using an orange gel on an off camera flash. The last 2 images on this blog are using a longer shutter speed to give you an idea of the different styles of shooting Fire.
