That fireball is twice the size of her, very impressive.
Shame she wasn't going it against a better backdrop.

Kinda reminds me of one of my Ex's mothers ... has she got a daughter?

Firstly I think the exposure here is pretty good. Lots of detail in the flame without the background being too dark.

Have to agree a tad about the background. Did you manage to get a shot from what is the left of this image, looking straight down the bridge at the castle? Could frame the primary subject really well.

Unfortunately there is an awning on the left hand side which wouldn't give me enough space to work in. The flames were too high.... :D So unfortunately it was a side on view only.

Very impressive! You did well in capturing the action. I think it would impress the artist also.

TonyH,

Very well exposed image under what would be no doubt, less than ideal conditions. Good job.

Cheers
