Fire!

Challenge #2 in the Darkness series. Hosted by USAFMechanic.

Challenge has finished

For our ancestors fire was a miracle that changed everything. It allowed them to venture into the night without fear of attacks or loosing their way. At the same time it was a new nightmare that when left unattended could spell disaster for them. Let's see your photo's celebrating fire in all of its glory.

This is a very sad challenge result; just lots of sand baggers at work...

Any member giving 0,5 or 1,0 ratings to any of the top 20-30 images should be disqualified.

There are great images in this challenge... sad, really!

Now I remember why I don't enter too many challenges anymore....
Too many people trying to vote other entries down by giving .5 or 1 star. When none of the entries deserve a .5... everyone except for 1 entry got at least one or more .5 votes. Very bad sportsmanship if you ask me...

Still happy with a 2nd and knowing that I got there without trying to downgrade anybody else's entry

How about giving everyone a fair go here please...
