Earth Hour 2011

Earth Hour was last night, March 26 @ 8:30pm, local time. We are being urged to turn out all our lights for One hour for Earth Hour. Whether or Not? This actually addresses the real issue of power conservation or whether it is just a token gesture. In the spirit of going beyond Earth Hour, this is the first step in changing our habits and it suggest ways to take action on a number of different issues that can make a continual difference.

Getting ready for Earth Hour. I setup candles for a Still-Life photo shoot. However, I was planning on drawing the still-life I had setup but, I was more into taking pictures of the candles. This blog today is about the pictures I have taken during Earth Hour. I just may have to do some sketches of the photo's I took that night. The warm glow of the candle lights.
