Idle hands

It’s late in the evening, you have just come back from walking the dog, you are alone at home, and the electricity supply to the whole neighbourhood is cut off… You light a few candles and look for things to do to pass the time… You can’t read, you can’t watch TV, you can’t use the computer, you can’t even make a cup of coffee! So, inspired by the flickering flames you set up your camera on a tripod and take pictures of the candle lights, of course! ;-)

    nice one George! – power cuts eh :o) don’t ya luv ‘em.
    Love the reflections, well set up – nice!

  • monocotylidono replied

    Well… “set up” is pushing it a bit, “spotted” is probably closer to the truth, but many thanks Dean :-)
