When I started to spin steel wool nearly 6 years ago, I always wondered if there was a way to add color to the sparks. Magnesium ribbons will give a white/blue effect but I wanted more. For years I tried to figure it out!
I researched different options, but found very little. Then started to re learn some chemistry and finally cracked it! The first attempt I messed up the camera settings, but the color was still visible.
Knowing that it was possible I continued my attempts at some water and was blown away by the results!
Realizing that I had been only trying over the head spinning, I switched it up.
Until this week I had only seen colors added in photoshop, now I can do it in photo! There will be many more of these shots being done and hopefully with new colors!
Check out my store to get my favorite of these shots on photo prints, metallic prints, posters, phone cases, puzzles and much more! /people/vecordia/shop
