 Timing was tricky with this one. I had to use a lighter to ignite the match from the back and then wait a split second for the flare to reach the edge of the match head. A lot of shots taken to get this one and lighting was a real pain.
Basic colour and level adjustment along with sharpening here and there.

This photo is very well done. I like how close up it is, good job.

That almost looks fake. If this doesnt get a df, then props. I give it a 9.

Good shot, but I might suggest lowering the saturation a tad. :)
