After seeing the other candle shots, I wondered what my camera and 
lens would do.  The candle was approximately 1 meter from the camera, 
which was on a table top tripod.  ISO 640.  The 20 inch mark was at 
the wick of the candle.  The purple in the left lower quad is from a 
purple covered book on knitting.  I had not noticed this until I 
downloaded to the computer.  The lens was at f1.4 and was focused on 
the wick of the unlit candle and on the flame as best as I could.  I 
think that the ASPH Summilux does better than the Noctilux in the other 
photos.
