i like thois shot alot its really intresting with only half his face its mysterious kinda. his serious face makes him look like hes a real tough athlete next to that firey ball

great shot

how did you ge tthe ball on fire

Interesting idea and well captured. I like the light and the fact that the fire is casting light across the image, I would just like to have seen the sillouhette of the entire ball instead of it being cropped slightly.

Thanks for sharing

thanks, I have the original shot in my gallery, I just liked this crop a bit more and felt it was more mysterious. We burned the crap out of this bball though, unfortunately. I felt badly, but he didn't seem to care. I'm probably just going to trade him a pair of wireless headphones for the burnt ball so I can use it for future shots.

Rubber cement for the burning effect.
