Great idea, although too few will recognise the name. Nice fire photo.

Outstanding composition. Dark border does great job of highlighting foreground branches.

Nice framing by the trees, and the colors are subdued and saturated, leading to a sacred mood. I do wish the tower in the back were a little clearer. But nice composition and nice work.

The focus of the pic is the fire, not the "faces"... The faces would seem to indicate a very human element that seems to be missing.

I'm not sure how hard it is to shoot fire, as I have never tried myself, but this is the second fire shot that I have seen that is slightly out of focus. So my ignorance in the difficulty of shooting a focused shot of fire not withstanding, I like the silhouette effect & the matching orange border, it brings out the colours in the fire to the fore front. I think that if the objects in silhouette were sharper & more focused that would have been an even better shot.

Great frame with the trees, lovely colours, good location - perhaps wrong time of day or just very dull, flat light. some sort of GND filter would have helped with the sky exposure to keep things more even. Great potential. (6)

And what does the face in the fire mean? Nice shot.

Nice composition; This would be helped by a more interesting sky. Even as is, I think a haze filter and maybe polarizer would have helped.

Aha. I see the face. Very nicely captured. The blurring of the person in the foreground works well in this image although I fear others may not like it.
