Great concept, but I think you're adding a bit too much light. Let the flame do it's thing, and light the opposite side to keep the shape of the subject.

Nice pattern and color, but I'd prefer the focus to be a bit deeper into this shot, unless the rim is your intended focal point.

Cool sculpture. The cloud, however, betrays a bit of the mystery in this shot. The vignette and the black border are nice on their own, but for this shot, togather, they are a bit too much, IMO.

Great dramatic lighting and composition, but 80? It's a bit of an anti-climax. Mid-teens or 120 plus would be more appropriate, unless it's Celsius...
Processing is spot on.

Cool! The uneven background throws this off a bit, but it's a great texture and pattern shot.

Cool shot, and a nice demonstration. May I suggest tightening up the crop a bit to lose a bit of the bottom and keep attention on the subjects. Great job at focusing through curved glass!

Wow! Serve me a vitamin like that and you'll never get a complaint! Aside from the frighteningly over-complicated presentation of a recommended daily nutritional suppliment, this is a good shot. Perhaps a bit hot on the upper-left, and a bit yellow on the lower-right. Well done.

Nice texture, but try for a bit more DoF on this type of shot.

Pastels, soft-focus, extremely tilted perspective... I missed the 60's but that's about how I picture them. OTOH, it could be an innocent childhood memory of baloons at a birthday party, a bit fuzzy with a touch of gender ambiguity. Ok, I know I try to read too much into a photo, but why else would I be here? Can I just suggest slightly dodging the left side to prevent the background from drawing too much attention.
