SATURDAY SELF-CHALLENGE
1 SEPTEMBER 2018
"BOKEH IN THE FOREGROUND"

Another can of coke :-) Together with tiny candles (battery operated).

Very, very, very difficult to watch but for 'Sight and Sound' I have chosen "Candle in the Wind, Goodbye England's Rose" by Elton John played at Princess Diana's funeral. Doesn't seem possible it was 21 years ago yesterday (31 August 1997) that Princess Diana died.

Added to ~ Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music

♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ Candle in the Wind, Goodbye England's Rose ~ Elton John

Excellent ; le travail en très gros plan ou macro est une bonne idée pour le thème ; cela crée une belle abstraction, très artistique

Beautifully shot, Roger!

It is hard to believe Princess Diana has been gone that long. She would have adored her grandchildren.

Thank you very much, Val. Yes, so tragic that she died before her grandchildren were born..

What a cool image, Roger. Nice to see the Coke can again. :)

You're right. That's a tough one to listen to but he performed it brilliantly. I'm always amazed that singers can even sing at such a sad event. Nicely done by Sir Elton.

Yes, amazing how Sir Elton kept it all together and it was a beautiful tribute.

I saw someone try to light one of those candles with a match once. It did not work very well. Excellent choice to create the foreground bokeh.
