Photographing a fire pit is a delight and a problematic venture. First, to get a good shot of fire, it has to be a darker time of day, such as at dusk. Since that is the case, and darkness has its own set of problems like secondary light sources and their effect on the camera lenses, it is often difficult to get a good shot. Even the moon can cause problems. So, here is a short tutorial to enable you to take a good photo of a fire pit.

And for starters, don’t focus on being a pro, you won’t get there that fast. Take time to learn, take time to master what you are into.
Stage photography is by nature different because you’re capturing a performance where practically anything can happen if you haven’t seen the show before.
