Fire Poi Typography - Letters

All the photos in one layout.
It took about 15 hours, in 2 sessions, and every letter had about
30-50 takes until i got i right (and lot's of gasoline!).

You can see each individual letter at the rest of the set.
My favorite letters are the O & the T.

This is a part of my portfolio for graphic design school,
& if you we're wondering: yes, these are real photos, not photoshop... :)

* if your interested in publishing this, please contact me throw the flickr mail.
