Fred,
you can feel the emotion in the young lady's head as she holds out the flame to light her candle helped by her companion both their eyes fixed on the candle. I hope & Pray the climate Summit in Paris at the moment with pass off with out any further incidents or attacks. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting with superb camera techniques with sharp focus.

Comment from Dick Lee Shia


In tue Philippines, the street urchins will steal the candles before they totally melt & sell them to Chinese candle makers!
That's how hard life in these islands is or are! Never mind!

A well presented close up showing details, of what the sympathizers are offering!
Harmonious colors. Nice perspective & narrow DOF.
Excellent lighting, focusing & framing.
Thanks for sharing...

    worse in France! yesterday there was a very violent manifestation of the extreme left, just because they didn't like the emergency state, and throw the candles , bottles, flower pots from the memorial on the heads of police men; more than 300 were arrested....

I almost want to bypass this photograph because of the emotions that it brings out in me. The attach has angered me so. But, our Whiner in Chief won't do anything about them. I digress. It brings tears to my eyes. Very touching and moving. Well done, Fred.

Another touching scene. What good all this amount to if the powerful countries do not annihilate the terrorists. We have become helpless spectators to this tragic drama! Thanks for sharing!
