Dilyn Y Fflam

Inside the image.

The square cover has a narrow white band across the top, above a much larger, nearly black field. In the band, the orange-brown uppercase serif lettering “CÔR MEIBION LLANGWM” is centred. A thin dark line separates the band from the image below; at the upper right of the black field, the smaller white serif text “gyda Mairi MacInnes” sits just beneath it.

Two lit candles stand out against the dark background. A small candle appears left of centre, its short orange-red body topped by a bright yellow flame. Much larger, in the foreground at lower right, is a thick candle cropped by the bottom edge. Its body grades from yellow-orange around the top to orange and deep red lower down. A bright, elongated white flame rises above it, with a warm orange halo and a small dark wick visible at its base. Both candles have soft, blurred edges and glowing highlights, giving the image a photographic, shallow-focus appearance. The foreground candle is substantially sharper in its bright central glow than in its outer edges; the smaller candle is also softly blurred.

The lower image is predominantly black, with a faint brownish glow behind and between the candles. There is generous dark negative space, particularly around the left candle and across the upper part of the image. Pale yellow serif lettering reading “dilyn y fflam” stretches across the left side, level with the smaller candle and partly overlapping the space between the candles. The contrast between the pale title, warm candlelight and deep black background creates a simple, tightly framed composition with no visible outer border.
