A metal grille, polished to a mirror shine, holds a steady blue flame against a soft wash of color behind it. The pairing of chrome and fire suggests a burner, the kind that heats the air inside a hot-air balloon envelope. Propane burners of this type run hot and blue when the mixture is well balanced, which is why a flame like this reads as controlled rather than wild. The blurred background keeps attention on the hardware, and the image ties to the ballooning theme on this board through its focus on the equipment that makes flight possible.
