This works as a high key but the whites could be a touch whiter. The subjects are pretty, but I'm not sure about the composition. a different arrangement would have worked better here I think.

Details are nice and pretty sharp, I like that the flame is bright but not totally blown out, could have been maybe a little less exposed but still very nice. Colors are nice for this subject although I'm not sure about the green candle (I guess that could be considered Jade color) but I think something like a brown one might be better. I was a little concerned about the cropping on the top and right but actually think it works for the image. good luck

Greetings from the Critique Club.

A very pleasing photo. Nice forms and lines, a splash of color, interesting contrasts. Technically well done. But lacking somewhat in emotion; it doesn't really engage me or hold my interest for very long.

It seems that while the candlelight does add in a positive way to the illumination of the scene, there is another rather strong backlight behind buddha's back that does not seem to be helping the candlelight imagery. In other words, having darker backdrop light would have helped this photo in my opinion. 6.

Nice, especially on the lighting, looks very pro and I actually could envision in a catalouge. Still not really fond of the DOF, would either want more of it and both the ornaments sharp or way less and only a portion of the yellow one in focus. One of the better shots in the challenge, 7 from me.
