Making fire with flint and steel. Just a quick and simple demonstration on how easy it is to make a fire using just a piece of flint or quartz and a piece of carbon steel. Charcloth is the best tinder for catching a spark but tinder fungus (chaga) is also known to work well as natural tinder.
I added the "Sin City" effect (black/white + one color; red) just for fun! =)

AUGUST 23rd, 2010. While I was driving home from work, I noticed a lightning storm in the distance. I grabbed my cell phone and recorded some great lightning bolts. When I got home, the storm continued to track through the area so I got out my Kodak Z1015 HDand recorded a great light show. Hope you enjoy!
