~Candlelight~ Photo

Photographer’s Note

On 13th we had been invited for a candle light dinner at Atlanta after a marathon technical session throughout the day. It was attended by all delegates who came from all continents. Different languages, different colours, different religions but with the same mood of happiness smeared all over their faces. The sky outside was overcast with rainbearing clouds. Inside on one of the tables before the dinner started I found these candles with flickering flames. I felt the caressing touch of the soft, soothing light. It appeared to me that religion is a candle inside a multicoloured lantern. Everyone looks through a particular colour, but the candle is always there.Thousands of candles can be lit by a single candle, but the life of the candle is never shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.

Great note, you are very right !
Warm and happy colours, plus the fact that there are three of them is a bit magic I think (linked to religion too, or at least, to spirituality)...
Looking forward to seeing people or animals (cows ?) in your gallery, when you feel inspired,
Hope that you are happy to be back home,
Regards,
Cath.

Hi Partha,
Groups of three is considered visually good. You must have been bored with the conference for your mind to think about other things :) Nice capture ... well done! tfs
Cheers,
Renier

Just try the result by composing the same photo by placing one candle in the left bottom golden point and placing the other two in a bit angular position close to the one at the golden point.
