A Malevolent Dance

The fire, to me, is mesmerizing and I could watch it for hours. It ebbs and flows and crackles so elegantly. The fire shows passion and beauty. However, as I was capturing the fire with my camera, I felt contradicted. As there have been so many calamitous fires in California, it felt wrong to think of the fire as beautiful. The photo captures the malevolent aspect of fire that is untamed, powerful, and engulfs entire towns. The photo also represents the ethereal and invigorating dance of fire. Fire can be devastating, blissful, elegant, and terrifying all at once and I think that's captured that in my photo.

To me, creativity is the way that people interpret things. And everyone interprets things differently, which makes everyone so unique in their own individual ways.
