Take a Gamble


I'm not exactly happy with this - best laid plans and all that, but it is what it is and possibly marginally more tolerable on black.
Looks great to me :)

Awesome

Not sure I'd like the result of that gamble, however this looks great and black gives it an extra pop.

@juleshoogstraanderson Thanks very much - I can't decide what I thinks wrong with it but somethings "off"!
@sarraphoto Thank you very much :)
@ukandie1 Thanks very much :)
March 23rd, 2016  
I think it looks fab, definitely looks great on black!
March 23rd, 2016  
@elishajae Thanks very much :)
March 23rd, 2016  
Looks like you have a hot hand--well played!
March 23rd, 2016  
I think sometimes if it doesn't look quite how you envisaged it it can look wrong. From my point of view looks fab.
March 23rd, 2016  
Ooo another cool one!
March 23rd, 2016  
@aikiuser One of these days I'll go up in flames!
@rachelwithey You're probably right there - and thank you!
@susale Thanks very much :)
March 23rd, 2016  
Mesmerizing!
March 23rd, 2016  
Very spooky with just one eye ;)
March 23rd, 2016  
Wonderful work as ever - Where do you find the time????
March 23rd, 2016  
@spanner I'm not entirely sure - it tends to happen in stages through the day - and thank you
@nicoleterheide Excellent ;)
@aecasey Thank you very much :)
March 23rd, 2016  
...maybe it's all that colour that is upsetting you??? Hope your mountain is all good for Easter - my husband and son are coming down on Sunday to climb it on Monday. Please organise good weather!

@alinz It's supposed to be fine - I'll be painting the house but I can see it clearly from home so I'll be sure to wave every now and then ;)

Smoking again?
March 23rd, 2016  
Excellent shot!
March 23rd, 2016  
re: something's off...i reckon... your hand should be more in the centre and the flung card over to the right...it's being flung right?...or just juggled...just thinking...cool processing...as usual...
March 23rd, 2016  
@maree_sanderson Thank you very much - it is something about the hand though isn't it? Just not quite there
@888rachel Thank you very much :)
@mastermek More of a gentle smoulder...
March 23rd, 2016  
I really like the left part of the pic, but the hand without the reference of a shirt sleeve or an arm almost looks too big or like it doesn't belong to you but is its own essence. Cool idea and love the fire and smoke.
March 23rd, 2016  
Have you really burnt all those love letters?
March 23rd, 2016  
Magical!! Fantastic processing, one of your best indeed!
March 24th, 2016  
Love the lighting and processing!
March 24th, 2016  
such a talent.
March 24th, 2016  
You're right! Marginally more tolerable
March 24th, 2016  
What is there not to like about it? Great capture and creativity as always
March 24th, 2016  
Tossing burning ice with a raised eyebrow? Looks ok to me. ;)
March 24th, 2016  
So creative. I like the flame action.
March 24th, 2016  
@epcello Thanks very much :)
@rosiekerr Thanks very much - I'm just not sure though
@jgpittenger Thanks very much - something is "off". I think it's the hand/card scale
@kevin365 Thank you again sir
@bigugly Who? Where?
@radiogirl Thanks very much :)
@brett101 Thank you very much, far too kind
@maggiemae What love letters?
@dyanstevens Thanks very much - the more I look the more I agree. It's the hand.
March 24th, 2016  
i think it looks pretty cool really
March 24th, 2016  
Smoking weeds again??:)
March 24th, 2016  
Brilliant -- this is really wonderfully framed and composed.
March 24th, 2016  
@annied Thanks - I think it's the hand and card position that's not working. I shall discipline myself.
@joemuli Never stopped...
@taffy Thank you very much :)
March 24th, 2016  
@graemestevens with a good whipping?
March 24th, 2016  
The selfie on it's own is superb.... the rest doesn't work for me, especially the semi-detached hand.
March 24th, 2016  
Wonderful effect...Fav
March 24th, 2016  
@vignouse Thank you, and yes, I agree. The more I looked at it the more it became quite wrong.
@tonygig Thank you very much :)
March 24th, 2016  
Juggling flames- better than chainsaws I suppose.
March 25th, 2016  
@joysabin Now that gives me an idea...
March 25th, 2016  
You look good playing with fire.
March 26th, 2016  
@kategoring Thanks, it's a hobby... ;)
March 26th, 2016  
In the very moment I was listening to the song «Everything is not what it seems»… ;-p
April 16th, 2016  
@bankmann Perfectly timed then ;)
