Description I dedicate this picture to my girlfriend ~picturenoise , who just earned her master's degree today. I suppose this was one of the peak moments in her life, and I hope many more will follow.

Actually I had a similar picture in my gallery before (same subject, same title), but I recently removed it because it wasn't that good. Last night I created this new version and I'm quite happy with it. What do you think about the composition and the colors? Constructive criticism is always welcome.


Gear:

Canon EOS 1000D
Canon EF 50 mm f/1.8 II lens
Giotto's VT 802 tripod


Technical details:

Aperture: F/9
Shutter speed: 1/2000 s
ISO setting: 400

I've always liked shots of candles in the dark, but I've never really thought of using matches for this purpose. It certainly looks neat! Good job ^^

Interesting how you end up with different colors of flame in this one.

Argolith In reply to redwoodtwig [2010-01-30 17:28:13 +0000 UTC]

The color is almost unedited. I just adjusted the saturation slightly. Thanks for the !

Amazing moment to capture the flame. I clicked on it because in the smaller view, the flame looked like some kind of impish figure... Wild!

I needed quite a lot of attempts to get this shot. Glad you like it.

picturenoise [2010-01-13 17:45:47 +0000 UTC]

Many Thanks again for this special congratulation!

I like the restrained colours und the soft light, which I already know from your pictures; for example from the negative space series.

The capturing of a short moment reminds me to your Fade-to-black-picture.

Iยดm looking forward to your next pictures curious.
