I wanted to try my hand at making a timelapse, and I was searching for a subject when I found Onya’e on Instagram — they’re local to Portland and make these incredible decorative candles with a bubble motif. I thought this structure would melt beautifully, and it did! The time-lapse had to end prematurely because the bottom of the candle melted down, and the wick fell out — but I learned a lot about this format and I can’t wait to try more in this medium.
