Candle light

Candle light

Uploaded: December 19, 2005

Description

Yesterday night during a summer storm, we didn't have electricity and we had to use the candles and when I saw the blue candle against the orange wall I decided to take some pictures.
This was intencionally a little bit overexposed in order to emphasize the colors gradient. I didn't want to clone out the imperfections in the candle (some spots), I like it that way.

Merry Christmas to all of you!!!
