Inspired by a powercut
Yes we were in darkness from 6:30pm on Sunday and it remained off for about 18 hours
 I blame all those chavy Xmas lights on our estate!However, sitting there in the candlelight gave me an idea for a photo - and here it is:  I love the way that just a small section of the top and the angle of the writing allows you to visualize shape and size of the can. Taken in a dark room, handheld at 1/50th at F2.5 on a 50mm F1.4 Nikkor via the D70. No cropping or exposure adjustments. I wonder if Guinness would be interested in buying this one?  Matt. |

My favourite tipple...'Guin dr'
 In my mum and dads' day, they used to occupy themselves in a different way during powercuts. Nice capture...the candle almost looks like the head on a pint of the black stuff and compliments the can well. |

I like that image a lot - but I like candles anyway... Thinking advertising image here...
Photo of the church candle in a black room. Superimpose the Guinness logo from the can onto the black area of the candle. "Guiness - A Religious Experience"... You heard it here first, and I want royalties...

 I wouldn't mind but the current front runner, although a beautiful composition is not sharp and has lost all the detail in the bright section. I know that sounds like sour grapes but it's my new year's resolution to speak my mind  Matt. |
