Dealing with weeds

Nice photo idea there, brill imagination. I am a fully qualified to spray weedkillers and pesticides across land, dwellings, fields and mountains and specially qualified to spray into waterways and rivers to NOT harm wildlife and such. It appears a flamethrower licence might be required too lol !
 
Sheer vandalism - brilliant.

Hi Ashish,
Thank you.

Subject - Dandelion in a vase against a Black background.

Gear - Camera and macro lens, Tripod, Remote and a 'jet' lighter.

Method - Camera was set to Continuous shooting (7 FPS in my camera), fired up the lighter, moved below and just in front of the Dandelion, used the remote to fire the shutter at the same time as moving the flame into the edge of the white of the seeds. With in a second it's all over, I got three frames per head.

Settings - 1/1600, f10 and ISO 6400.

This was my first try at this, I'm going to try adding a flash into the mix to see if I can improve the image without losing the flame detail.
