I should have stopped down on this one a bit, the depth of field is just a hair shy of getting the candle and the lace table cover over the front edge of the table. One stop is all it would have taken I'm sure. But still the image does most of what i wanted it to.
You rarely think about video and photography together but I found this video about a favourite photographer Todd Hido and then there was this video about John Chiara that is pretty inspiring. John is a new one to me and I look at his process and it boggles the senses that he goes through such a convuluted effort to come up with a single image in a day but the images are pretty emotional and chock full of narrative which is something I struggle with in a lot of my photographs. Even though I think I missed today's image technically I think I got the emotion and narrative I was looking for which is why it's here. I'll take it again one day soon and see if I can get the technical side down as well but for now this will do.
