March is a "Fire prevention month". i thought i could make a collection of photos that could well represent it. But as i go along with my photo session, i realize the true value of matchsticks...so i ask myself... when was the last time i used it?
- lighting candles during baptism of my sons...
- lighting candles for family prayers...
- lighting candles to achieve peace.
- to have light during brownouts!
-and a lot more...
third world country depend a lot on matchsticks...
i hope and pray making matchsticks will never be done at the expense of illegally cut trees...

I got to your essay late, but it is very well written. The photos of the matches are set in wonderful patterns.
