Top ten for sure, dispite the slight oversharpening.

Clever! The effect is convincing, though the composition and technicalities are a bit off. Specifically, it would help if the background were completely black, the candle was a little more upright and centered in the image, the candle holder was either more in focus or cropped-out entirely, and the flame was blowing in the direction of the bullet.

Awesome shot - im guessing the candle is really horizontal, the bullet is on a string and that is what is causing the trail, with the whole picture flipped 90 degrees CW? Hope there is an explaination in your image details area!

I thought this was great when I saw it during the challenge. I remember scoring it very high. Your DOF is spot on IMO. The colors are wonderful. Technically, I think that it is perfect. I have no idea why it didn't score higher? I guess because there where so many awesome photos in this challenge! It was a real hard one. I love the facial expression. You couldn't have clicked the shutter at a more perfect time. Way to go! Sorry, that I did not have any suggestions for you. When I see photos like yours I wonder if I should really be a part of the "critique club".

I had to stop and think about this one. Great (and lucky?) composition. Looks like a warrior. No voting rights but would rate at 9~10
