"Extreme Votivation VIII"
Raleigh, NC - July 2010 (Click to embiggen)
Green it is, then. Interesting fact about green: the human eye can detect more variations of green than any other color. I don't know why that is, possibly because it falls dead-bang in the middle of the visible spectrum, but it's the reason that green is used in night vision equipment rather than black and white.
I didn't need night vision gear for this shot, though, just some cheap fireworks and a hollowed out votive candle. And something to put the whole rig on that wouldn't get wrecked by melted wax.

Jim Morrison would be proud. Thanks for sharing.
Reminds me of the flame tests in chemistry lessons = barium burns green.
So does copper, which is probably what this is. We actually ran through several of these; they were leftovers from some holiday or another, and it seemed like a neat idea.
Incredible! Great share.
