Bulbie Experimental Shots
I had time after I got home from camp on Saturday, so I bought 4 light bulbs for some experimental shoot. I had previously seen this idea on some photography galleries, and decided to try it out on my own.
This is how the lightbulb lits up. Nothing special.
And what happens when the glass is broken? It burns!
And with a little photoshopping, you get a clearer observation of how the fume diffuses.
Cool? Now, anyone can explain this phenomenon in terms of science? 
hi..
volatile gases come in contact with oxygen from the surrounding when the glass breaks. Chemical reaction occurs therefore flame ignites. Flame diffues because it’s less dense than the surrounding air, therefore it spreads upwards and outwards.i’m purely guessing.. so whats the explanation?
By the way, is there any way i can have some of the pics you took?
