This is a really nice shot. Love the soft framing and great composition.

The only drawback I have with this shot is that there's so much going on here that it's difficult to distinguish many things. I love the effect and it's very nostalgic. I also think it meets the challenge perfectly. I'd love to know how you did this. 8

The only thing that bothers me about this shot is the blown out lower left corner. Otherwise, I think it perfectly meets the challenge for the year 2005. Very insightful, creative, and emotive. Great job. 9

Crop is a little tight on this - I'd like to see the top of the flame and the bottom edge of the gloves, but otherwise great job! 8

Dude - the only thing keeping me from giving this a 10 is the fact that they didn't make blue lava lights in 1963 - only the orange/red ones. :-) Great job though! 9

I got to this photo while still voting and said to myself, "well, it's over - here's the blue ribbon winner hands down." Magnificent shot - can't believe you even got a rainbow in it - LOL! Perfectly meets the challenge. Thank you for following the challenge rules. Perfect clarity, lighting, composition, color. Outstanding. 10
