Its all in Hand

My mother always said that when I sneezed I should cover my mouth and nose, but I'm not entirely convinced that she knew exactly how violent my sneezes would become later in life. As hard as it may be to believe, asbestos tissues are very difficult to come by.

This is a shot that I've been toying with attempting for some time now, but I was never sure how to accomplish it. I'm not entirely happy with the result, but without risking every hair on my body I don't think it's going to get any better.
oh my! very cool!

It is very cool....looks like magic!

Are you posting this from the emergency room? I have no idea how you didn't burn yourself! You didn't really burn Asbestos did you? Isn't that, like, dangerous and cancer causing? OK, super, super cool shot! Fav!

@harbie Thanks very much
@eyeamlisa Thanks - I'm all okay, and no asbestos involved just lighter fluid which burns fast and "cold" (for a flame)...no eyebrows though (again)

Ah-ha, a bipolar possibility! This is the first time I've seen/heard of flaming breath.
May 16th, 2014  
Very cool despite being so very hot!
May 16th, 2014  
very cool shot. hope your hand is ok :-)
May 16th, 2014  
@golftragic more than possible, I never know which head I'll be wearing on any given day!
@voiceprintz thanks very much :)
@jaynspain thanks, and no damage done although it did "tingle" for a few minutes afterwards...
May 16th, 2014  
I love this! Is this photoshopped or did you have a flame in your hand?
May 16th, 2014  
@jess1204 thanks, it's not photoshopped at all, the flame is really in my hand
May 16th, 2014  
@graemestevens Wow! That makes it even cooler. Great job.
May 16th, 2014  
Great shot it looks great. Did you just do it once?
May 16th, 2014  
Relight my fire....your love is my only desire..... Oh wait no it's not. Too much take that cd in the car..... Perhaps stop sneezing? Glad I'm safe in UK with fire sneezing men and murderous bears and women without heads.....whatever next....
May 16th, 2014  
Unbelievable Graeme. You had me giggling again. Maybe I'm a closet fire raiser! Fav
May 16th, 2014

@jess1204 thanks again!
@wearing0 thanks very much...ummm, no. Several attempts required!
@newbank are you defiling my photo with Take That lyrics or am I proving my insanity by knowing that? ;) Who knows what will be next?

I'm thinking of burning down my house tonight just so I can share a fire shot with you!
May 16th, 2014  
@gigiflower sounds drastic Sam.....
May 16th, 2014  
Sam
@newbank HAHAHAHAHA you are right, maybe I will just throw a Molotov cocktail down the street and see what happens ;)
May 16th, 2014  
Maybe a series of photos based on Take That lyrics?

You are so creative and so fearless. Love your work, love your commitment to this project. You are one of a kind. (It's a compliment) I'm really happy to be one of your follower. So much pleasure to look at what you do!
May 16th, 2014  
Well, Graeme, you really are one of a kind. I don't think you need to care about anyone trying to copy your ideas!!! Unique and great.
May 16th, 2014  
@daneau thank you very much, that means a lot
@lorenaavalos Thank you very much - is there anyone else insane out there?
May 17th, 2014  
@graemestevens Sounds fair enough to me.

This is awesome. When I was little I remember a man who once burned a $50 bill without damaging it at all - you've inspired me to research it and now I highly recommend this trick to you (perhaps starting off with a smaller bill...?) http://www.stevespanglerscience.com/lab/experiments/burning-money
May 17th, 2014  
@louuncouth intriguing - thanks for that, I may well have to give it a try
May 17th, 2014  
Really good idea! photogaphtying fire is really inspiring. This is my version: http://365project.org/mmikaella9/365/2013-06-14
May 17th, 2014  
@mmikaella9 thanks very much, your version is really cool, love it
May 17th, 2014  
looks dangerous, wizardly.very creative!
May 18th, 2014
