This amazing display in St Petri Church is a mass of candles burning away symbolises humanity's collective hope and compassion for all of the hardship we have to endure. You find a place on this huge mass of candle wax - you can see in the picture the huge white rough mass beneath the candles - it's all candle wax. Once you find a spot, you melt a little area on it with the flame and candle wax, and then you put the base of the candle onto the little pool of wax. You hold it there for a few seconds, and the wax cools and sets, and your candle joins all the mass of other peoples candles. It's a simple idea, but so amazingly breathtaking.
