Hope...

Here's an old pic... well taken last year when I was experimenting... I don't like the glow of the candle flame... However, it looks kinda neat... I want to redo the shot one of these days...



Setting:

Its really simple... Make sure everything's dark and the only light is coming from the candle.. =P

No flash
Reduce exposure balance to -1
ISO speed 50... it wont give you those weird lil grainy look to the pic
A tripod would be great...
A model... of course =)

Thanks guys... :)

Settings, no flash... i didnt lower the exposure level, so maybe the glow would have been a little softer... the ISO speed was 50, and a tripod would help =)
