Anti-War Candlelight Vigil

Anti-War Candlelight Vigil.jpg

In the vein of yesterday's picture, I decided to put this picture up. It is from a anti-war candlelight vigil held in Strauss Park a few weeks ago. I swear I'm not terribly political, but I just like the composition of this one.

I am a sucker for scenes only lit by candlelight. I love the way the yellow-orange flame colors people's faces and keeps a lot of the picture in darkness. I tried to get a picture that would use the candles best in this way, while also showing the solemמity of the occasion.
