As I write this entry, I’m reminded to say, “Happy Birthday, StephySmurf!”
The fourth in my crazy little series on learning how to photograph candles. This is a giant three wick candle that I’ve used occasionally for over a year. It has burned down pretty evenly until recently, when first one, and then another of the three wicks got buried beyond saving. So, now, I can only light one wick and it won’t be long until I have to say farewell to this sweet-smelling friend.
This photo is kind of fun, although I wish the green colour of the candle itself had come through better. But, the resulting picture is such that it’s almost hard to tell it’s a picture of a candle! Parts of it almost seem like the interior wall of a cave. Perhaps with a pool of water. Imagination is a wonderful thing. H m m m . . .
Saw the film DejaVu tonight. Very interesting. A little more edge of the seat-ish than I was really prepared for, but not because I didn’t know better!
Purring cat on my lap is telling me it’s bedtime.
