#MacroMondays - #Flame

Taken for the group #MacroMondays - theme #Flame

 

An interesting challenge this one, what to take and how to get as close as possible without damaging my camera! I settled on a wax tealight candle with a brushed aluminium background that gives a flame effect behind the candle flame itself.
