hmm a little noisy, neatimage would do well here. Some artifacts here and there. dull color, yet interesting perspective.

Something about the color of the skin seems off. Why pickles with your egg?

When I first saw this it reminded me of "The Nightmare Before Christmas" movie for some reason. The match resembles the tree drawings used in the film for me. I think that this is an excellent photo. You have a very creative imagination. The detail on the burnt match is great. This is a great example of SDOF. Congrats on a great score.

great textures off burned wood and oranges
i like the centered position maybe for my sense some sticks in the background a bit out of key
nitpicking / great entry

This is really good. Looks like a landscape from another planet. The out-of-focus matchsticks in the background are what I like the most. They look like dead alien trees or some other life-form.
