Early Photographs (4)
In the late Seventies I decided to become a product photographer, because I really enjoyed working in the studio. Product photography was all about perfectionism and that was my second nature, at least that is what I told myself. To make this picture I obviously went through a lot of trouble getting the flame going without somebody pressing the button on the lighter, but when I finally had it all set up, I did not notice there was a slight draft in the studio, making the flame lean just a tiny bit towards the left. It was the end of a promising career.
