Patrick came home with this candle last week as a gift from the second graders he reads with at school. Brandon was dying to light it but I made him wait until I could take some pictures. He had to wait several days, because at the time I was sick and didn’t have the energy to do much more than sleep. When I was ready, he was happy to be my photographer’s assistant.
So here it is, a bright and shiny candle today, brought to you by me and my trusty assistant. Can you make out our apartment, in reflection?
Today’s 9 Muses Musing prompt is SHINY. Tomorrow’s is SHARING. I hope all of your Christmas wishes came true yesterday!

What a beautiful image!! Wishing you and yours all the best..holidays filled with laughter and light!
Kind of–parts of it, anyways. Love candles and you really captured this glowing flame. Very pretty. 🙂

And you, my friend. Hope you are feeling better. You and your lovely assistant make beautiful photos together…
It's a through-the-looking-glass image for me…I can almost step into your apartment. Beautiful!
This is lovely Kat. What a beautiful candle and what a clever assistant!
Gorgeous indeed! I love how the whole world of your home is captured inside the globe.
What a lovely candle and love the reflection!
