The topic was hot... so I decided to experiment with fire. I just write an 'E' in the backyard with lighter fluid and lit it on fire... (My name is Eric... that's where the E came from...)

Interesting idea. I think if the background had been less textured, the "E" would have shown up better. Of course, it may have burned your background up, as well. :)

The focus and colors are good -- no major suggestions there.

The biggest thing I would look at is experimenting with crops. This one feels very centered, and leads it to seem static-y.

Perhaps the "E" in a corner with a lot of negative space would have been cool, or soemthing like that -- anything to draw attention to the fire.

A neat idea, though, and one that I think could really grow into something compelling and unique with some practice.
