Pedro Hespanha - Task #3 - Alex Prager

After doing some research on Alex Prager, I noticed one thing that all her images have in common. They all look as if they are still plucked out from a film. I wanted to emulate this idea -- a picture looking as if it is part of a story, a fragment -- but without trying to copy his style. I feel that fire, something that consumes and engulfs, can be fleeting in certain situations. Newspaper, for example, when introduced to a flame, will dissapear in a matter of seconds. In this shot, I had only a few seconds before the newspaper itself disintegrated entirely and possibly even burnt me. I feel that this fact -- the fact that this is a moment in between two moments, makes it an appropriate submission for this week.
