Awww, that's a mean name, lol! No wonder he hides, he thinks he's going to be dinner. Great detail!

Nice colours. The little bugger won't fall. A little grainy but overall a good looking shot.

Really interesting shot. This makes for a wonderful abstract texture. So, couldn't you get in a little closer? (j/k) ;)

Ha ha! That's really a fun shot. Fantastic composition, detail & DOF. The body bokeh is nice and creamy too. Those eyes are intense!

Yes, this is a difficult shot. Aside from the wick being melted together, it is black on black in a frame of mostly light to mid tones. Just thinking aloud, I wonder if less overall light aong with a spot light on just the wick (even from a penlight or small focusing flashlight) might have given the wick enough boost to allow more detail to come through. Or you could just light the wick :)

Wow, this is a unique look! Great detail. The little hairs are amazing.

Too hot to handle! I am glad to hear that the camera lens and yourself are doing well. Quite mesmerizing like a real life burning ember.
