Every day we share a single photo from our Flickr Pool shot by one of our faithful and talented readers (that’s you!).
Well, I guess I inadvertently put the call out for Earth Hour photos on Saturday when I remarked that I couldn't find one from previous years in the flickr pool. I guess the Earth Hour movement is still fairly young - it was only 5 years ago that it was first done in Sydney, Australia; and only 4 years since other cities worldwide began to follow Sydney's lead. And I'm fairly confident that the city of Vancouver's participation is greater than has been reflected in the pool.
Since I wrote that post on Saturday, there have been two such photos submitted to the pool, so I'm going to stray from the typical form of this feature and share both of them with you today. Think of it like that nice large free-range organic brown egg that you crack into your frying pan only to find a yourself a double-yoker.
The first photo is from Lisa Parker who hosted a dinner party with friends and burned an epic cactus candle during Earth Hour. The kind of candle you might save for a special occasion, perhaps?
The second photo is courtesy of Vanessa Griffiths, who found an arrangement of candles whose sum of its parts achieved epicness. From UBC, here is Earth Hour 2011.
Thanks for submitting these photos ladies.
