I've been part of the Fire Spinning and Juggling community for more than a decade, and photographing Fire Breathers has to be my favorite event to be a part of. Known as the Summoning of the Elder, this move is known as one of the most dangerous tricks, as it involves 4 or more breathers to breathe off of the same torch. Any kind of a mistake in timing, direction, or outside factor like wind can result in disaster and should only be attempted by seasoned fire breathers.
I had the honor of being able to photograph an event like this one at a fire spinning retreat in Connecticut, and I can only describe this as one of the most awe-inducing scenes happening before me.
