The Flaming Snowball

I think this is a really cool shot. The girl and the flame really stand out from the background, thanks to your solid desat work. It's a fun shot. This is going to over the head of many voters, I hate to say. Your shot here requires additional study, to appreciate the details, and that's just not something these people do around here.

I love her smile, the flame is perfectly formed, very nice color in her shirt, and the background players allow for the viewers imagination to take over (what exactly is going on here, for example).

Normally I'd score this an 8, but because of the pathetically low scoring in this challenge, you're getting a 10 :D

nice shot, no major complaints from me, but these sort of conceptual takes on the challenge descriptions never do as well as they should. good luck!
