The Candle

I went over to a meeting of a men's group at a retreat house nearby. A small group of us sit around and talk about life for a couple of hours. It is a really interesting group made up of men from all walks of life. To help set the mood, the person who moderates the group brings the tablecloth and this candle. I spent a lot of time looking at it tonight, for some reason. I am not sure it has a specific meaning, but I like the feel of the sculpture that holds the candle, and of course, the feeling of the light.
It may be work, it may be play, it may be near, it may be away. So here is the challenge - to shoot and post one photograph a day on this site. These photographs are a kind of diary of things I find interesting. I am also thinking that there will be days when I am unable to shoot, so on those infrequent occasions, I will post a photograph done on another day, but one that still feels important to me. - Ken Spencer

Legend of the Circle of Friends
"Since the beginning of time, friendship has been the most important relation that humans have experienced. Ancient cultures used to gather around a new fire to celebrate peace and friendship among tribes. The legend tells that if you give a circle of friends to a person you care for, your bonds of friendship will endure forever."
Wow, thank you, thank you all for your comments. I woke up this morning and realized that the candle-holder and the candle were a metaphor of the gathering of our group. It only took me 12 hours to figure it out! :-) Thank you so much for posting"The Legend of the Circle of Friends."
