#37 - Embers C&C

CoryUT

I already uploaded this as my entry for this round since I may not have time to do much more with it, but I'd still like to post it up for feedback. I have some other shots/angles and it can be cropped a bit differently. Thanks for looking!

Updated with a second option that I think I like better.

I like the 2nd one better, too. It is not as warm as most fire pictures. I am not sure if it is because of the gray. The red seems more red and less orange than other fire pictures. Is it the stage of the fire? I think I need to study fire more.

It's a shot of the dying coals, so there is no real "flame" in it. Thanks for the feedback

I like the cropped one more - the details are wonderful!

I like the second one. It makes the one hot coal the focal point.
It looks like an almost-cold fire that was warmed up by blowing on it.

I just came in from cleaning out our fire pit, this one hits home!

Thanks Chris. I really liked the detail in the log, so I tried to bring focus to the hot coal and the log right above it. It was still very hot, believe me

I think I like the crop in #2 better. It's a nice image.
