[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Nara Candle event occured last weekend. This was the second time I had seen the display. Unfortunately the organisers decided to floodlight the whole area which reduced the impact of the candles (also meant that many photos have a bright floodlight in the image).
This photo has nice balance between floodlights and candles. The candles themselves are in a dry artificial creek bed.
I didn't use a tripod for this but held the camera against a post to keep it steady for the about 2 second exposure.

Hi Stephen,
A nice shot . You took it well . But I think it is fade a little ! Isn't it ? I propose to you to increase the contrast and to playe with color balance .
Good photography
