Thematic Photographic - Elemental

Okay so after having watched Dennis doing this for a while I thought I'd give it a go :D.
Seems to be each wednesday a new theme is announced at and you then post in a comment a link to an old or new picture that you feel represents that theme.

This week's theme is Elemental. For me possibly the most fascinating element of the traditional earth-wind-fire-water variety is fire. I spin fire as part of my uni's circus skills society, the Visual Arts Soc. I therefore felt that this theme would be best represented by a photo I took of one of my friends spinning fire down on Swansea Bay. The image of the flames reminded me of celtic knotwork hence the photograph's title.

Firestaff

This post is to commemorate my first fire staff spinning. I have moved from poi to staff as I was getting increasingly frustrated with my apparent to grasp new tricks. Staff I am finding more enjoyable and more natural.
On wednesday 13th February 2008 I span with a lit fire staff for the first time, this was swiftly followed by more fire spinning on the 14th as well.
I could wax lyrical about the sensations for pages I suspect. However its late. I shall update this at a later point.
