You know those heaters have terrified me since I got here (they still scare me even with one running right now ). Of course, they're the warmest ones you can find And they do produce some neat pictures. Great SP, hope you're keeping warm!

I just love your creativity Jared. The colours in this one are stunning and what a great effect. You pop up in the most unusual places but always worth the time to look and comment. Great work once again Jared.

Thanks Nicole,
they are pretty warm, 4800W or somethign crazy. only problem is the moisture they produce. burning LPG aparently hydrates the air.. something about oxygen molecules joining to the something else... blah blah.. see the useless info you learn when working with engineers? so they reccomend leaving a window slightly open.. kindof defeating the purpose.
i think they are fairly safe.. apart from me melting a sock, once, and almost doing the same to my jacket while taking this SP.
(although i am to afraid to sleep with it on) me and fires have a bit of a history.

i love the glowing honeycomb look they produce.. BTW.. its already uploaded to MCB
lol

God, how I want one of those in the room I'm in right now! I'm freezin' here!

Love the colour. The explosion of gas really didn't disappoint --- that deep blue, with the flecks of orange through, just beautiful. Great self-portrait, to boot! I would've liked it even without the self-portrait aspect.
