The Spin by Bipphy Kath on 500px

NOTICE from the editor

Please practice full precautions and safety measures if you plan on attempting fire spinning. I have done it and can tell you the steel wool molten, burning bits fly a long way! Read up on this technique before you go to it or risk setting something on fire or burning yourself. This is real molten (melted) steel, do not mess around it is dangerous.

Wishmaster by Renee Robyn on 500px

Beginning of the End by Renee Robyn on 500px

Editor’s note: Renee is a personal friend of mine, in fact she took my own headshot! Her work is amazing. Most of them are composites of several images, and hours spent in Photoshop. The one above “Wishmaster” is a self-portrait. I couldn’t do a collection on creative images without including some of her work. I don’t have it in me to create this kind of photography, but it sure is fun to admire.
