I was going to vote for the same photo, however, voting was not an option for me: it was as though I had already voted and the scores were already showing (and this was my first time visiting this volume).

I was pulled between the grinder and the flowing fire.  So I went with Kerry's pick knowing how hot it is in steam locomotive cabs and how a blow back like that can be hellish and hot and keep you dancing.

I agree--it won't stay "hot" if it doesn't get "sticky".

Having said that, I voted for Brandon Townley's shot of the rail-grinder.  Hot, sticky, and dirty!
