Texture:
I felt that my object looked so interesting because it had so many different lines and curves and texture all over it. At first I took pictures of the obvious texture on the bas of the object where there were many line in all different directions and sizes. The i realized how incredible the texture looked on the crystals hanging around the candle and I tried to capture that in my photographs. I had difficulty making the pictures come out the way I wanted for texture because it is not easy getting a great picture when the camera is so close to the object. I think my texture pictures really brought to life how beautiful the object is. 
Lighting:
While I was taking pictures of my object I began to run out of ideas for angles to capture it at. I titled in all different ways, and then I moved a way that the light hit the object perfectly and it gave the crystals on the candle sick a glow. This was a big moment because I thought it looked so beautiful, the lighting pictures are definitely my favorite. I also realized the lighting from the candle it self was very beautiful and so I began to photograph that at angles and also straight into the flame. I think the lighting gave my object a uniqueness, there are not a lot of objects that really light up when the sun is hitting it.
