TWP - Pepper
One of the photos I mentioned that should have been posted, but wasn’t.
Simply, a pepper. I wish I could claim the idea was completely mine. This photo was taken and staged in an attempt to test out more commercial style photo attempts.
It was shot at night to allow for a slower shutter speed. Several different allegedly flammable substances had been used prior to this to see what had the best effect. This resulted in the interesting conundrum of the pepper being so completely inflammable that I half considered saving to mail to California for the eventual yearly infernos. The idea being this individual pepper’s innate immunity to fire would extinguish any live flame within proximity to it.
The second attempt proved…. overly flammable, sadly.
