Fire

The magnificent and fascinating chemical process of combustion we know as fire in an integral part of our everyday lives.  Human's ability to control fire dramatically changed our lifestyle and behavior.  Fire can provide endless entertainment and conversely be detrimental to our lives and infrastructure.

My family's affinity for fire runs deep and each year it is expressed during the 4th of July.  Fire dancing and fireworks are prevalent during this celebration.  Here are a collection of photos that were taken during a fire dance performed by my sister Emma.
