Shame you chose such a distracting back cloth, the bright colours take the eye away from you subject

Hey Mambe! :-) Great lighting in this one!
I like the simplicity of this photo. Not trying to create any glamour. Simple and quiet.
the kind of photo that gives some peace and quiet to the mind, and help me through a hectic day.
Wonderful take on the challenge. 8

Nice composition and lighting, hard to pull off a candle shot sometimes. Only thing I might change is not having the hand hold the candle as it tends to pull the eye down toward the light on the finger. That hand resting upon the other or the arm would be interesting. Still, that is very minor. Excellent use of low light for a very nice portrait.

This is precious, Mambe. I kind of wish for more sharpness, but then it's a soft mood anyway. You've balanced the image nicely, not easy to do with the naked flame. Well done!

Nice one. Love everything about it. Your neighbor live in an abandon building? lol. Seriously- sort of dangerous to be poking his head out of sharded glass like that. You can see hair all over the glass edge.

Great exposure in the sky, and I like the tree shadow as well

I guess the branches are not helping the photo very much... The sky is very beautiful...
