Solder, heated over a camp stove. Evidently some of the solder residue is flammable.

I really love this one - I think the texture of the two backgrounds is what adds extra interest - I also love the splattered metal and the shape of the flame is just excellent. Does look a wee bit dark.

I like the fragments of cooled bits on the rock - that could be the hottest liquid in the challenge! Great fire capture - wish we had just a tad more focus on the edges of this.

I would lighten the picture slightly overall. Nice photo.

it looks like out of focus. IMO you should be making some better composition and perspective. In this case it is not so obviously what is in the spoon. = 4

You seem to have gone to a lot of trouble in getting this shot, so it's a shame that you didn't capture it better! Nice idea, but there is too much going on in the rest of the picture in the way of textures that takes away from the subject. I think you could have benefited from more lighting on the spoon. 4

The liquid on the spoon is just a little too dark to identify.

I like that, I was hoping I'd see some liquid metal:)

Beautiful shot here-- nice, rich colors! I especially like the metal spatter on the surface below the molten metal; it adds a nice touch. Not much I can suggest here for improvement. --10
