Thought it was kinda cool, tell me what you think. sorry for the small image I found out in the uploading phase I don't have the full image on my computer

What made you go B&W on this? It totally works ... it's an excellent B&W shot in my view, so don't get me wrong. Just curious really as the colour of the flames would normally prevent most people from choosing B&W I would think.

I'm not a huge B&W fan but I like this shot. Has a bit of an X-Files feeling to it

This is it with colour, I think ultimately I liked the shadows on his jacket, and I thought the blue sky kinda took away from the flame colour.

It's good in colour too but well done on recognising the potential in the B&W option.

b&w is a great way to go. This is a cool shot

Cool photo! Gives "burning the midnight oil" a whole new meaning but why is he burning it?

[Skippy599]

haha, well, we went to my friend's parents house for dinner and had deep fried turkey, then afterwards all the oil was leftover, soooo...we burnt it

[Skippy599]

Thanks for the replies everyone, much appreciated!

Yes the b&w adds that much more to it, very well done Skippy, I really like this one.
