When I began this project I didn’t have any images of fire from previous shoots so I knew that this was going to be the element that I would have to work the hardest element on getting quality images. I did this shoot in my house, because the house that I live in is very old it has multiple fire places which I was able to use. What I liked about taking the image in my house meant that the fire was very small and contain because I feel that if it was any bigger I wouldn’t have been able to capture the image in a detailed way. I took these images on my Iphone once again as I would that my DLSR wasn’t able to capture the images quick enough to get the detail that was being created. I edited these image on my phone on the Lightroom app, I didn’t need to do much edited as the fire in the image was already very vibrant and sharp. The only editing that I did in post production was the increasing the levels of contrast and levels of low light in the image to isolate the the fire and reduce the visibility of the background. By doing this it increased the intensity and the colour of the fire which I think had improved the overall quality of the images greatly.

Experimentation

After editing the image from the shoot I found that the image became very repetitive and not that interesting, so I did some experimentation with the hue of the image but the image that I liked the most was the fire being monochrome.
