Photo 101 : Warmth
Challenge for today is Warmth. As it is winter here, capturing an image of warmth using the sun as a source is a bit harder than usual. So I have done my own interpretation and took this photo earlier this evening. Here’s my favourite porcelain candle holder from Mont St Michel.
And here are a few more from my collection
Very good take
i like that
come and see my choice for the challenge :

Thank you!
Your candle holder is beautiful and looks very warm. This chocoholic appreciated the inclusion of chocolate as a constant source of warmth for the heart.
Ahh, a fellow traveller on the chocolate journey!
I lke the porcellain candle holder. I remember the cross-coat (correct word???) on top of Mont St-Michel. And the Belgian shop – is it on the way?
We simply had to get it when we saw it. It is so delicately beautiful when lit up. The chocolate shop is actually in Brussels. It looked delicious.
I used to sell those candle holders when I worked in DutyFree, they’re so delicate and beautiful. What is the brand name again? Good job with interpreting warmth!
It says Bernardaud, France. I know it came with a slip about the artist as well but I seem to have misplaced it. Were the ones you used to sell have NY scenery on them?
No the company is Bernadaud, and the ones that I sold were world scenes and I don’t believe we had New York. But I fell in love with them but they were too expensive and fragile for me.
I found it with New York on it , but my favorites were the underwater scene and the wedding. http://www1.bloomingdales.com/shop/product/bernardaud-new-york-votive?ID=2629&CategoryID=3865&linkModule=1#fn=spp%3D38%26ppp%3D96%26sp%3D1%26rid%3D%26spc%3D86%26cm_kws%3Dbernardaud
I meant no, we didn’t sell New York to my recollection, and yes that’s the name of the company. I re-read my response and it made no sense, lol!
Lol – Thanks for the link to Bloomingdales. I was wondering what other scenes would look like. And yes they are quite fragile but lovely to look at. Reminds of Mont St Michel everytime I light mine up!
Bloomingdale’s has a good assortment of them. Hummingbirds, roses, Paris, Rome, sweetpeas, really lovely!!
