I took this photo a while ago but on that day I was bored and wanted to try something different.
So I requisitioned some matches and proceeded to try and capture the moment a match ignites.
The setup was very simple: The camera was setup on a tripod pre-focused in drive mode and with remote trigger. The matches were soaked in alcohol so they could lit like a fuse providing time to get ready to trigger the camera’s shutter via remote.
Of course this was all down to good timing which ment I went through many matches to get a half decent shot…
Drop us a comment and as usual high res version is on my deviantArt site here.
