<\/a>For this week's Shooting Challenge<\/a>, I asked you to capture a photography by the light of just one candle. Your response, as always, was remarkable.<\/p>

\"Taken with a tripod mounted Canon XSi with a Canon 50mm f1.8 and an extension tube. Exposure was f\/2 @ 1\/50s, ISO 320.\"
[Ed note: Close call, given the Portal shot in the galleries.<\/em>]

Most Clever<\/h1>

<\/a>
\"This was \"shot\" using my Canon 7D with the 50mm f1.8 prime. Tripod, ISO 800, 1\/6 shutter, f2.8. The only light in the image is from a taper candle inserted into a disassembled MAG-Lite. To keep the flame from melting the reflective lens of the flashlight, the setup was aimed up and the final image rotated.\"
-Christian Shaffer<\/p>

Most Fiery<\/h1>

<\/a>
\"The shot was taken with my Canon S90 @ F8, ISO 400 and with a 15sec exposure on a tripod. To achieve the blur, I adjusted the head of the tripod downward and back to it's starting position quickly at the start of the exposure.\"
-Jesse Oliveri<\/p>

\"I hung the statue upside down to make it appear that the light was coming from up above. Using long term exposure I quickly moved the candle to light the side of his face.\"
[Ed note: This image subverted my expectations completely, re-imagining soft candle light as a crisp backlight. Also, I have a soft spot for The Incredibles, silhouettes and the color red<\/em>.]
-Felix Mendoza<\/p>

Note: there are two galleries this week for the sake of our back end:<\/p>

If participants proved one thing this week, it's that a single candle is more than apt for photography by modern dSLRS. Well, that, and they're all gluttons for punishment. Nice job, everyone.<\/p>

Now cheer* on your favorites in the comments!<\/p>

(*Just be sure to do so without, you know, being a dick to other participants. Also, for anyone wondering why the lead shot didn't win, it was taken last summer making it ineligible for competition.)<\/p>
