[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
In Sankt Gallen's Cathedral, where I also shot this other picture, there was a shelve full of lit candles. I've seen in many churches this sort of collection of candles, where one lights up a candle after making a prayer. In many churches the candles cost some money. Here it was no exception: 1 CHF for a tealight. At the actual exchange rate, that is like 1 $ for a candle.

Very well composition...

Hi Jurgen,

Fantastic picture!!

TFS!
Alex

Die Hande auf der rechten Seite sind, meiner Menung nach, die interessantesten Elemente in diesem Foto. Ganz gelungenes Bild.

MfG, Adrian

Hello Jurgen,
Good choice of panoramic format for this glowing composition in black and amber colours. Very effective how the rings on the hands catch the light from the candles.
Best wishes....Maggie
