    I’m happy with this!

    By the way, the thing I’m using as a heat shield is an improvised spirit dish I found on a Tilley lantern.

    Cheers

    That's a very nice flame, and a lovely shade of blue too.

    Photo from an iPhone on auto, at night, under the white light of three Coleman lamps. Photo unedited.

    I was surprised by the blue.


    Cheers

    I thought my eyes had been seeing different.
    I've never seen that shade of blue(as appeared on my hp screen) on such flames, no matter how "perfect" the combustion is.
    Its beautiful. Does the actual flame colour appear like that in the pictures?

    That is the flame in the photos without any digital alteration.

    I think it is due to the automatic adjustment of the iPhone reacting under the white light of the Coleman lamps.

    After I finish planting my garlic crop today, I’ll see what it looks like in the shed with daylight.

    These photos taken at the same location, but this time during daylight and no light of Coleman lamps.

    Cheers

    These latter pictures show what I'd normally see on cleanly operating burners.
    My handphone camera often does strange renditions under different lighting conditions :).
