I had taken my camera with me all day but hadn&#8217;t even taken it out of its bag. In the evening I realized I needed to do something. There is a candle in the mouth of a bottle in our family room. I&#8221;m not sure why it&#8217;s there, but there it is. I took a few of that and then realized the picture would be a lot better if the candle were lit. So, I lit the candle and then took a few more pictures. These were taken with the flash and I managed to balance the flash with the candle flame, so the candle itself was lit but the flame still showed up.<\/p>\n<p>The next thought was that it would be better with a dark background so I moved the candle to another room. I positioned it in the kitchen with the door to he back yard behind it. I bounced the flash so it lit the candle but didn&#8217;t reflect off the glass in the door. I got a few that show the flame pretty well. It&#8217;s still a little static and I think I&#8217;d like it better if, perhaps, there was the slightest wind making the flame move a little, but overall, I&#8217;m pleased.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was looking around for something to photograph this evening.
