Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: Conspiracy (Advanced Editing IV)
Camera: Canon EOS-350D Rebel XT
Lens: Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II
Location: Home Garage
Date: Sep 16, 2005
Aperture: 8.0
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/200
Galleries: Humorous
Date Uploaded: Sep 16, 2005

Originally was planning on taking a picture of "classified" documents being shredded, but at the last minute decided to try something a bit different. Unfortunately I did not have any assistance with this shot, so getting the camera timer and just the right amount of flames on the paper was tough. Would have helped if I had a remote (and would have saved a bunch of paper). Anyway, just thought I would add a bit of humor to the challenge. Hope you all like it.

Great job on the top 10 finish. I got a kick out of this one. I'm sure my copy of that document got lost in the mail...

Excellent idea and nice procedure. The harsh shadow on the fingers annoys me a little though. I am quite curious to read the text.

Excellent fire capture, and teh black background helps it to look really clean.

Hehe, I can assure you that her "secret" is just a good eye for photography combined with a good eye for photoshop work. Anyway, this is technically very well done and nicely lit, normally flame shots don´t have any texture to the flame so very nicely done.

The "by Heida" makes it. I didn't like photos which required a lot of reading to understand the conspiracy, but that was a nice touch. 7

Nicely composed and photographed. Good job.

Oh no, the print is too small - how are we supposed to learn and improve here when stuff like this is being burnt in front of our eyes. provocation.
the photo itself is well composed. i wander how difficult it is to capture flames in front of black background (shall have to try). may be the hand should be slightly more lit.

OMG!!! This is hilarious....please stop it from burning...I want to see it.
