The essay's focus was on displacement and on the uneasiness people feel when they are in transition or in unfamiliar surroundings. That made sense to me at the time, because that was how I was feeling back then. But the clouds have long passed and I've settled into my new place pretty well since.
Despite its calm simplicity, I named this shot, Eye of a Storm, because when I looked at the outline of the candle and at the glowing wick in its centre, it reminded me of those weather maps you see that trace the movement of a hurricane as it makes for landfall! As such, it kind of matched the theme of the essay, albeit in an abstract, even ambiguous, way.
If I had to re-name this shot now, though, I'd probably call it, Like a Hurricane.
Oh, hang on a minute ...
Anyway, hope you like!
More soon ...
