A photographer has discovered a spectacular way of keeping warm during winter – using fire to heat up icy locations.

Sam Scholes uses long-exposures to capture the movement of fire in front of ice-covered backdrops.

After lighting steel wool his friend Scott Stringham swings the flaming object in order to make swirling patterns.

The result of this technique – captured at Midway Ice Castles in Utah is a vibrant image with the warm light dancing across the cold scenes.
