Thanks, Lee, shooting at night with long exposures is new territory for me...yes, I did like it, looks mysterious with those shadows...Bee

Spent so much on gear there was none left for furniture! I'm happy to see you've got your priorities right! LOL! Nice shot. I'd like to see your face more clearly though. I love the way the room looks and the shadows on the wall too. :) ~ Lonnit

Bee, The room is only light by the candle and the porch light from out side. I light the candle and the took the picture with the long exposure. Then made the motion as if lighting the candle with the BBQ lighter. The shadow is caused by the candle. I hope you liked it. theFly
