POTD 30 of 365

The Missus and I had a "cook-in" this evening - hot dogs cooked over the fireplace, and I wanted to get a shot of it.

This is what went through my mind on this shot:

1. I can expose for the hot dog, and the flames will be blown out.
2. I can expose for the flames, and the hot dog would have been near black.
3. I need to add light.
4. Flames and tungsten lights are a similar color.

No setup, but, light is the 580EX II at 1/64 with the Strobies globe, and a full CTO (see point 4, above).

Turned out OK.
