Fire Photos

It has been a busy work-heavy few weeks.  But rather than spend my time and blog space lamenting my lack of freedom, I’d rather share what I did manage to find time for.  One of Renee’s projects lately has been to post a “Photo of the week” to encourage her to keep thinking creatively.

Although I managed to capture a couple of

shots of her that were “keepers” (I love digital cameras…we got a couple out of almost 100 shots), she got quite a few of me that I liked. I’d love to say these are lovely professional photos but as I have been work-busy and was looking for relaxation…they’re fire pictures.

For quite a few years we both have done fire performance. Mostly for our own enjoyment, but Renee has taught quite a few seminars in the MidWest on this. Alas, we still haven’t found a good burn-space in Maryland so the photos are from the backyard and livingroom.

-This first is a portrait-type photo with flaming batons.

-The second is a picture of me actually ON FIRE.

    Hmmm looks like you two are playing with fire again… Time to go sell my stock in the insurance industry!

    Very neat! I was going to say cool, but that seemed like an odd comment.
