This album contains my best fire performers images. More images will be added to this album, if you are a performer please don't be disappointed if you are not in this album.

The reason these images have been chosen, because of composition, lighting, position of the performer's stance, the tool they are using, etc.

Since I am a company of one person, and editing is labor intensive, and one of the most hardest thing is selecting one's own best work and being self critical, this combination makes selecting the best image, not an easy process to do.

Photographing good images is easy, making great fire performance images is much harder.

If the image I may have taken deserves this recognition, please send me an email and it will taken under advisement, the final decision however will be retained under my discretion.

While standing in front of the Pyronauts camp a female burner was asked to be photographed as an angel.

A few minutes later, the windstorm came and Pyronauts Pyramid fell near her, perhaps my wings protected her.

This was the first time PEX was not at PDF, fortunately for me I was invited to be part of Tim's Lund Barrel of Fun camp, enclosed are images shot from the first early evening at camp.

Thanks to the help of Christi, Lisa and of course Shirely Green for use of studio space.

Opening day, one of my few non-freakish images, closer to pedestrian and ritual, but similar to our burner communities from a sociological point of view.
