March 7 2004:
Caledonian Craft

I’ve been indoors all day, but I’ve been itching to make a colourful shot today. So my Scottish candles have come to the rescue, the ones that I bought on a trip to West Kilbride last November. They just said “Buy Me” when I looked in the shop window. Of course, they are really too pretty to use as candles…

**NEXT THEME: I’m suggesting we do something for April Fool’s Day. It can be whatever you want, whether it be a misleading thumbnail, some Photoshop trickery, illustrating an actual fool, or whatever. I’m giving you three weeks to think and plan something, as you may need to think about this one!

Colorful, but I particularly like the lighting.
Guest 09-Mar-2004 22:02
Abstract in appearance, interesting shadows and colours, too.
How do we know that YOUR April Fool's joke isn't to trick us into doing an April Fool's theme photo??!!! ;)

Wonderful lighting that shows off the colors in your candlesticks! Your composition is really nice too! It took me a little while to see the "candle" part...I thought they were fancy wineglasses!

Of course count me in for April Fool's.

What a classy lighting, and what a wonderful colours!
PS Celebrating the Fool's Day? I still have in my hard disk a mirror-self-portait in which I try to smile at myself...
Guest 07-Mar-2004 20:00
Very nice! Looks like some kind of mystical masonic symbol from the thumbnail...nicely composed and wonderful colors.
Guest 07-Mar-2004 19:52
Love the colors, Ray! I see why you had to buy these!

As for April Fool's, OF COURSE! That will be fun!
