A good photograph

Hello to all!!!!

This photograph was taken by Wen Fong, a Chilean student that lives in Santiago. He has been in North America, Asia and Europa taking photographs.

The photograph was taken on January 8, 2010 in the Meadow Village, Big Sky, Montana.

The name of this photograph is Winter Fire, and was publicated in Isocien which is a chilean website dedicated to the photography and in Flickr, the bigest website made to share photographs and videos with the world.

An important point is the camera that captured this photograph: a Nikon D40X. This is a great camera, and his price is over $ 300.000 chilean pesos.

This photograph shows wood burning in winter. It is very difficult to achieve combustion in bad climatic condition, but we can see how flows the fire and which is feeding from to the wood and the cold oxygen of winter. For this reason, this is photograph need hard work.

To take a fire photograph needs knowledge and experience in the world of photography, Wen Fong could not took this photograph using flash, with a low exposure time or a auto zoom. All of this factor must be selected for the photographer with so much carefully. Each element of the nature could ruin a photograph, and more in winter, the enemy of the fire.

I like this photograph because It shows a big concern and care in the details: the photograph is centered, the colors are very marked and the contrast is optimal. Exist the possibility which I am imagining all of the good characteristics of the photograph and could be the result of an error or just for luck. Even so, this is a great photography and It has the classical features of hard work.
