Candlelight

total darkness, light
appears, a tiny flame, a
hopeful sign, comfort, calm

I'm wondering just why its so difficult to photograph candlelight, there were only 2 out of about 20 shots that worked and neither of them showed the reflective black background!

I did this in total blackness at home, but had a blue line across the camera screen at the top of the candle together with a pink circle around the flame (even when I did this on auto)! Can any blipper help me?

Another exhausting day at work, and some bad news....my Manager is leaving! The best Manager I've ever had, the one who has given me all the confidence I have now got (and the one who wouldn't stand for any bullying) :( I hope I can keep the confidence and the bullies don't start again!

In other news, I appear to have a very sore throat and am definitely getting a cold...thank goodness I am only working tomorrow morning and have a day off on Wednesday :)

Does anyone else have a problem when you're typing your blog with tiny lines across the screen (especially when scrolling up and down)? Its really strange!

Apologies this seems a very moaning blip today...

Happy Monday folks :)
