This lady was kind enough to let me take a picture of her, while her crew was setting up for her next shot, I picked up a spray can and asked whether she would hold it for me and she obliged. In the excitement I did not think and picked a can up with no nozzle on it, I think with the nozzle and her holding the can with a finger on the nozzle would, for me made a better picture as when I got home I felt like there was something missing. 

I was going to discard the image at first as I was not happy with it but I thought before I do let me take it into PS and have some fun with it. 

I took the image in PS and firstly used the liquify tool around the top of the can to give the impression that the metal had melted. I then used some of the pictures from my BBQ set and place the flames over the can and used the blend mode 'lighter colour' to remove the black and just leave the flames. I did this over three layers to get the flames in different directions. Once I was finished there, I took it back to LR and increased the shadows and bought down the blacks and highlights abit, I also went over the can with a clarity brush.
