What a great surrealist image full of wonderful vibrant colour, rich texture and so quirky too! I can't decide whether the almost centred composition complements the surreal aspect of the landscape or whether a more traditional rule of thirds placement for the foreground match would make it even stronger. Whatever, I do love it! 10

I'm not quite sure I "get" this shot, but I really, really like it nonetheless! It has a mystical feel to it, and the colors are great. It's certainly unique... I gave 'er a 10.

A very interesting shot. I like the idea very much and the burnt matchstick is great against the orange. Personally, I find the blurry matchstick almost directly behind the focused one to be a bit distracting. Also, it feels like this might be just a touch to sharpened ... The white outline along the right side of the focused matchstick is a bit strong for my liking. JMO.

I really like this. Its a little sickening tho that your model could look that good even at 4:00 in the morning :)
