Flame Thrower in C (olour) Minor

The X-Pro 1 has a reputation for uneliable focusing on moving subjects - this was pretty much one of its first trips out of the box, and I thought I would use this street performer to test the accuracy of the reputation.

Converted to mono in Adobe LR via brush tool set to minimum saturation, with flame colour replaced via eraser tool.

The picture has come out rather well - but in fairness the camera ws set to full auto and all I done was press the button and then processed.
