    Default Wandering Flame

    Well since zooming and panning have been a common theme around here y'all have got me inspired to do my own. So I lit up a candle and played around for a bit. Here's my favorite 2.

    Nice Realist, number two for me, there is lots of creativity to be had with lit candles and darkness.

    Number two for me as well... I like the way the zoom has created a "two-level" candle. Now if you could find a way to get the wick and blue flame at both levels.

    The whole flame blue or just the base of the flame?

    I'm surprised, I actually liked number 1 better. Well that's the value of outside opinions though!

    Sorry Realist, but another vote for#2 here. The total black in the background is what really makes this sing out to me.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!

    Well taking your input I found another one with a dark background. This one's a horizontal panning shot.
