Playing with fire

Don't worry: I don't have pyromaniac tendencies of any kind, but there is something fascinating about gas flames. Actually, I've been thinking of shooting this for a few years now, just never got 'round to it and putting it off for the same reasons as many other things, photographic and otherwise: not urgent, can do whenever, it's easy, etc etc. I'm sure this sounds familiar.

Well, a small commercial job finally gave me the right impulse to shoot in my own kitchen. Hey, a pleasant side-effect was that I had to clean and polish my kitchen hob - not something I've been looking forward to, I must admit.


Anyway, as the sun set and it got dark, the blue flames came to light. Perhaps I got carried away a little, but it was enjoyable - and I like the results:
