color is pretty and the subject of candles burning should be calming. but that petal is in such a sharp point and is angled right toward me, so this one doesn't really make me relax. not that a small tea light candle holder could make a really viable murder weapon, but still.....

I love how the coolness of the blue contrasts with the warmth of the flame! Such a beautiful colour

You can find that out by looking at the EXIF data underneath the photo.

Yeah i know the camera you used, but can't find the objective... Only the focus length.

Ah. I think that was just the kit lens that came with the 300D which I was using at the time.

How did I miss this? It's GORGEOUS, very peaceful and has a loving touch to it. The border irritates me immensely, though. The white certainly doesn't suit this; it's a harsh colour against the colours and mood of the photo, I think you should definitely change it.

mnoo In reply to JamesBardolph [2004-10-29 09:34:25 +0000 UTC]

Well it's still the old-school border. I ain't gonna start changing something that's been up since april.

LilinaFaerie [2004-05-12 16:45:42 +0000 UTC]

youve got an incredible sense of color and light--- i love the hues in this one, but i think my most favorite aspect is the detail on the tea-light holder in that front-most leaf--that you can make out the etched glass, that it is the only thing in true focus; that there is so much thought and commitment to the piece.... just great!! really wonderful!!!

ally153 [2004-04-15 10:52:28 +0000 UTC]

Wow!! I really like this one!!! It's interesting you chose to make both candles out of focus as opposed to focusing in on one of them. The choice to keep the "petal" of the glass candle holder in the foreground in focus gives a point of interest and really draws you into the photo. The cool blue lighting was a really good choice. It does give a sense of calm and avoids feeling too "cold"... I love the composition and the lighting - especially the glow you can see from the cangle light. Very cool

Nce work!!

Thanks so much for your lovely comment (and the of course).
It's funny, but I never even thought of havin the candles in focus. I was a lot more interested in the petal shape.

ally153 In reply to mnoo [2004-04-17 13:20:04 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, we all seem to see things a bit differently from one another. I probably would have instantly focused on the candle nearest the camera as opposed to the petal and missed that creative composition. You've got quite an eye for a photo...

Much better than mines...

lylianthe [2004-04-09 14:40:58 +0000 UTC]

I love the blue in this and how peaceful it makes me feel..
also how you chose to focus on the holder rather than the flame, making the two flames blurry.. I think if it was in focus, it'd detract from the photo's serene atmosphere...

snowunmasked [2004-04-09 14:14:58 +0000 UTC]

I love the beautiful tranquil atmosphere here.
Feels like the middle of the night, when everyone else is asleep.
And I'm a sleepless non-insomniac. Just staying up.
Listening to the buzz in my ears, intially; then the thoughts in my head.
The beautifully fading background is exactly what it looks like when you stare at one place too long, comfortably.
Delving into someplace else. Daydreaming in the night.

pecchio [2004-04-09 13:58:56 +0000 UTC]

what a grea DOF here, I thought you used a more opened aperture (if the EXIF data are right)

BTW this is the deviation I preferred today in my watchlist, I know, I'm boring, but I have to this also
