A burning candle captured my attention the other night. It was a great opportunity to take some pictures with very slow shutter speeds, and I quite enjoyed the results.

Near the end of my time taking pictures, I did find a unusual pattern in the candle. Smaller than a dime, this spot of wax on the candle looked like a face when the light passed through it. And naturally because of the fiery background that produced the silhouette, the image looked a little malevolent. I should have blown out the candle and tried hawking it on eBay.
