Reading in the forum that you wanted comments, I'll oblige. I gave it a 5. The focus seems a little soft for anything higher. Your shutter speed is a little slow unless you're on a tripod. Maybe a higher f stop would help with DOF. The bridge seems a little pale. My 2 cents worth.
BTW, I'm viewing on an uncalibrated laptop so that may come into play as well.

Cheers

Comment by Teafran:
A terrific concept and nicely executed. The numerous shades of red blending to yellow give this a pleasant feeling. The detail of the charcoaled wood is pleasing, but not detailed enough to overpower the overall impression of heat and warmth. As a texture image, it works, but under whelming in detail. A good effort though worthy of a good score.

This is a lovely shot with wonderful tones. In my opinion, deserving of so much more than 5.1299

I really enjoyed this one. I actually was one of 2 8's that you received for this image in the challenge.

Interesting processing on this, makes it feel very antique-y. I like the smokey look to the lines in the background. I think the white balance feels a bit off, perhaps it's the antique-y look, maybe not.
