I'm a Fire by graemestevens

I'm a Fire

I thought it was high time that I played with some matches again, so inspired by the Biffy Clyro song "Who's Got a Match" I dutifully got out my flammable substances and threw this together...which nearly (note the use of nearly) went horribly wrong. Luckily all of our insurance is up to date and I am still in possession of two incredible eye brows.

For those of you even remotely interested, here's a link to the guilty song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8kuWH7sjFo

Oh, and best viewed on black if you have the time or inclination.
yikes... glad your insurance is up to date and the eyebrows are still there... Mrs. S must be thoroughly peeved at you by now!

(cool shot tho!)

Cool shot for sure! But kinda scary! Lol I am a chicken!
February 2nd, 2015  
Burn baby burn. Hot shot:). Careful there.
February 2nd, 2015  
WICKED!!! :)
February 2nd, 2015  
@northy Mrs' S is out and must never know ;) And thanks
@monty147 It's only a little bit of warmth. Oh, and pain...lets not forget that ;)
@amandal Thank you kindly - all under control. Now.
@juliedduncan Thank you kindly :)

Some amazing form if you look deep into the flames! This photo could be too hot to handle, though!
February 2nd, 2015  
@maggiemae It was also remarkably warm sitting that close to it
February 2nd, 2015  
Looks like a scene from a horror flick!
February 3rd, 2015  
Fantastic shot. What could possibly go wrong while doing a shot like this? I can't think of a single thing.
February 3rd, 2015  
Are you the devil? This is seriously frightening.
February 3rd, 2015  
@kareenking Thanks...that how I roll ;)
@karlow75 Me neither - I don't know what all the fuss about, it's only a windy day ;)
@epcello Me? I'm just a big ol' pussy cat :)
February 3rd, 2015  
Eyebrows and flammable substances...always a great combo! This is awesome.
February 3rd, 2015  
Sam

February 3rd, 2015  
Fabulous! Slightly insane, but fabulous! LOL!
February 3rd, 2015  
Baby, you're on fire and you're HOT,hA:) !!

" I am OZ, the Great and TERRIBLE...."
February 3rd, 2015  
Your wife is a nurse right? lol...yes you flaminnnnggg!
February 3rd, 2015  
Great shot. A hunka-hunka burnin love.
February 3rd, 2015  
@bigugly Thanks very much, I wouldn't go that far though...
@nanderson Nope, but she knows how to throw a bucket of water :)
@melston I'm terrible? Way to let a guy down :(
@joemuli Haha! I see what you did there ;)
@homeschoolmom Only slightly? Note to self: must try harder.
@gigiflower That's a good thing though, right?
@divast8er Thank you very much - as long as I still have my eyebrows I'm a happy camper.
February 3rd, 2015  
Do you still have nose hairs???? That little lick of flame is tickling them pretty close!! LOL I knew you wouldn't stay away from fire long!!! Another awesome shot! :)
February 3rd, 2015  
Wow! So glad you didn't singe any facial hair, or anything else for that matter. You set this up perfectly, looks great!
February 3rd, 2015  
@cindyloo Thanks very much - no nose hair left, can't smell a thing either
@tabarlett Thanks very much indeed :)
February 3rd, 2015  
Freekily scary!
February 3rd, 2015  
@karlow75 For some reason, since you are a fireman, I find this hilarious.
February 3rd, 2015  
@rosiekerr @karlow75 So do I, but let's not tell too many people...
@taffy Excellent...thank you so much :)
February 3rd, 2015  
So many witty comments from other observers leave me little to work with... it does look (effectively) demonic and big points for color layered over the b&w. Wonderful!
February 3rd, 2015  
@rosiekerr Thank you very much - it was a tad hot and a bit risky with the unexpected gusts of wind, but I made it through alive :)
February 3rd, 2015  
@karlow75 and it is because he is a fireman @rosiekerr that I sense his twisted hint of sarcasm and mischief
February 3rd, 2015  
Graeme Graeme Graeme - I love that left eyebrow
February 3rd, 2015  
@annied So do and as such I am relieved to report that it is still firmly attached.
February 3rd, 2015  
@graemestevens and I will report thank god - there are some things that one would find hard to recover from
February 3rd, 2015  
Great - didn't you know about the fire ban!!!!
February 3rd, 2015  
@dide Yes I did, which is why I did this under very safe conditions, well away from anything truly flammable...and it was raining while I did it...
@annied If it wasn't waggling about up there I wouldn't feel right at all
February 3rd, 2015  
@graemestevens nor would I
February 3rd, 2015  
Love that song..... love that image. :)
February 3rd, 2015  
Love those flames, cool shot!
February 3rd, 2015  
Great image, well done.
February 3rd, 2015

February 3rd, 2015  
Hey, the firestarter is back. Love these shots

Mrs S would hardly dare leave the house if she knew what you were up to.........you are a danger to all!!
February 3rd, 2015  
@overalvandaan Thank you very much - they were quite hot too...
@ceilidh Thank you kindly :)

In contrast with 'very cool'. This is hot. ;)
Love the eyebrow raise.

Fantastic, fav. Glad the eyebrows are still in place. Love this.
February 4th, 2015

February 4th, 2015  
@roseolivia Thank you very much :)
February 4th, 2015  
Ah you're a fireman - bit of the poacher turned gamekeeper going on...
February 4th, 2015  
@ingrid2101 I'm no fireman...just a man who plays with fire ;)
February 4th, 2015  
Ahh! I see I've misread someone's comment - makes sense now, I did wonder that a fireman would do something like this. I didn't notice that it had someone's name tagged. phew
February 4th, 2015  
@ingrid2101 Relief all round - I dare say there would be an enquiry of some sort if I was!
February 4th, 2015  
This is so wonderful with your face peering from behind! All the better that it blends into the dark rather than being more-typically aglow!
February 10th, 2015  
@Weezilou Thank you so much, very much appreciated
