Fire Dancers

[brewmaster15]

Theres a really nice Historical Period Village about an hour from me called Old Sturbridge Village (https://www.osv.org/) Its dated to the early 1800s.Its a really great place to visit and see what life was like then . This past halloween it held a festival at night. One the acts was a pair of fire dancers.I am fairly certain there was not much fire dancing being done in New England in the early 1800s but these two women were just amazing to watch. You lose a bit of the experience as they danced to a very upbeat musical score when just looking at the pictures but they are still neat. . For me it was a challenge to take pictures of.. I wanted the Fire and them in focus with dark backgrounds, but they are moving so fast its hit or miss shooting with no flash.
I managed to get a couple of pics I really like....

That is just plain cool Al. While not your goal (which you meet I think), I see wonderful ICM possibilities :)

I think you should pick the best one of these and print it on metal at least 16x24 inches if not bigger... I use Bay Photo for this, and the photos are ready to hang on the wall when you get them.

I'd like to see some hanging on a wall. Is it expensive to have this done?

[dagray]

16x24 delievered to my door is right around 100.00. Less money than a traditional framed print and metal prints have a 'Pop' so they don't look dull and lackluster like paper prints compared to a computer monitor.

I use Bay Photo for the metal prints, and have printed one photo as large as 36x24 (around 300.00 to my door). I also have printed as small as 8x12 for about 50.00.

Metal prints are scratch resistant, water resistant, fade resistant, and very light weight.

[LizStreithorst]

Wow. Way less expensive than a framed print.

Very nice pictures, Al. Though initially I saw marshmallows on their head pieces and now I cannot unsee it.

Thats funny and very dangerous of them... and you should never let marshmallows catch on fire like that...of course thats usually what happens though!
