I adds a beautiful depth to the photo. Very well done.

You did a cracker jack job. Besides most people would be popping flash thinking it was impossible to shoot in the dark by candle light. I've covered many candle-light vigils and shot only with candle light because why would one use flash? It's "hello what don't you understand, it's a candle light vigil." So why would a photographer blow away the candle light effect by popping a twinkie light. But you did a damn fine job on this one. ted _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group. See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information
