David Keochkerian uses a slow shutter camera speed to capture moving lights that burn wildly into the frame. While the shutter is open, the subject spins steel wool in a circle while sparks fly in all directions, creating a wild glowing ball of fire. Keochkerian and accomplices practice this clever technique in a series of urban concrete venues to create walls and portals with the glow of the streaming fire. Shown is an artistic approach for both the pyrotechnic and photography enthusiast. In the photographs, subjects stand casually while a beautiful and cataclysmic force erupts around them.[via flickr]
