Beautiful photo of the flame moved by the wind. Perfect focus and colors

[Babs]

Nice shot, love how you have captured the flame movement too.

Her candle burned out long before her legend ever did. Loved that tune, but it took me a while before I understood it was a tribute to Diana. Wonderful representation of the concept the way you presented the "wind." I suppose it wouldn't have sounded quite the same if Elton sang, "Like a candle in the path of the dust puffer."

@stray_shooter Many thanks for your great comment Ron in way of clarification, the origanal song in 1973 was a witten as a tribute to Norma Jeane Mortenson (Marilyn Monroe) the lyrics were rewritten in 1997, "Candle in the Wind 1997", also known as "Goodbye England's Rose" was re-recorded and released on 13 September 1997 as a tribute single to Diana, Princess of Wales,

@pcoulson Thanks for the reminder - Goodbye Norma Jeane in the opening lyric is kind of a clue, huh? ;-)
