What kind of alcohol are we working with here? Looks like a fun shot.

Did it really burn purple for #1?

Nicely done. :thumbsup:

Very cool and creative. They look a little soft though, they would be spectacular if they were very sharp. What was your shutter speed and did you use a tripod or support?

Here is the Exif Data for both -
Flash used: No
Focal length: 45.0mm
Exposure time: 0.0063 s (1/160)
Aperture: f/7.1
ISO equiv.: 100
Whitebalance: Auto
Metering Mode: matrix

I did use a tripod. Could it be that the camera was in macro mode?

Maybe the focus is just off...I don't how well AF would pick up flames. 1/160 is pretty fast but I have no idea if it's fast enough to freeze the movement of dancing flames.
