Well congratulations you have the only helicopter in the challenge. Interesting composition, especially leaving room in front of the chopper.

Very good shot! Rotors nicely stopped! The background seems a bit hazy, do you have a haze filter? 9 Rob the Swash

You should watch your horizon lines. In my opinion, this should have been rotated or cropped up. Good focus on the helicopter.

Doesn't really fit the challenge, macro, because it's not a close-up.

while this is a good capture of the candles, i don't believe it counts for macro.

I tried something like this at first and couldn't get what I was looking for with my camera. This is a tough shot. I like the composition (but would have centered the plate and more offset the candles). It's blown out too much in the white part of the candles though. (the flames of course should be a little blown out in this type of shot) Also focus is a touch off. (hard to do real good in this lighting!) Adjusting for down for technical and adding bonus points for the attempt I gotta say 5

Interesting use of negative space to make a statement.
