You might recognize the Lion from a posting here back in February. I am rather proud of my "flame" effect. It is from a photograph I took, but isn't flame at all. I see all sorts of Lions guarding the entrances to public buildings, so why not one guarding the gates of hell.
I must add that yes, I was using PhotoShop Elements to vary the colors of the lion, and found that increasing the red values gave it a very ominous look. I went through portions of Dante's Inferno, until I found an appropriate passage of color and fire. The "fire" in the photo is actually the foamy splash of an Oregon waterfall. Again, it was "shopped" to get the effect.

Is that a photo that you took? A photoshop project? What brought this to mind?
