Chanukah Lights

It is amazing you were able to get a such sharp focus and lots of details of the candles. (I think it is a very difficult shot to do).
Other than that, there is not much grabbing the viewer attention. I, particularly, would like so see vibrant colours, but they are rather faded. Also, the image is a lot dark, in spite of the 9 lit candles - so it doesn't evoke much of a happy Festival of Lights, but a somber sad holiday. But maybe the biggest issue is that the image is "bi-dimensional": there is no depth on it: for example, it is hard to figure out which candle is the Shamesh (it seems to be the middle one, if one would know what to look for, which is not the case of most voters here at all) - I think I got this same problem with my entry, but mine the focus was not as good as yours...

I like the colours on your pp. I don't like the angle of the shot, mostly because her feet are too much in evidence and too distracting imo.

I like the saturation and the contrast between the dirty hands with the precious rings. I'd like to see their colour more gold/yellow though, but that's fine. The odd thing here is the angle between the arm(s) and the hand(s) as it seems the wrists were broken...
