      Gorgeous image! I love the way the tin menorah riffs on the tin of the mirror frame, and the way you've caught the candlelight's reflection. Just beautiful

      Hello,

      I thought you might be interested in some of the beautiful designs we've been making from your photo in our Kaleidoscopes Only group. The weekly challenge with the posted designs can be found at www.flickr.com/groups/kaleonly/discuss/721576 03379246616/

      The colors and light you've captured here have made for a great starter picture for various kaleidoscope and tessellation making software. I put the pictures up each Tuesday and wanted something this week that represented Hanukkah, so I searched for a Creative Commons picture that would fit the requirements and your picture won the search. One person said they could've made thousands from it.

      Thank you for such a wonderful picture and I hope you like the designs we've created.

      ~Crystal
