Had hoped to do better with this once seeing as it took a lot of setup...



I had thought about this one. It's a total candid of my daughter sleeping in her "big girl" bed for the first time. I placed a tealight on her pillow and shot away. I didn't enter it because I had thought it would get lost in the shuffle...



Would it have beat 25th?

I loved your original picture, it has a mysical quality about it that I havent been able to create. The picture of your daughter is great but Im not sure if it would have been better than 25th. You may have gotten the I cant see a candle so DNMC. I personally think its a qonderful picture, gentle and sweet.

I like the one of your daughter better. I think it meets the challenge more so than the candles in the bags. It might of helped a little to show the candle but I think most people would've assumed the picture was illuminated by a candle. I would've gave it a 6 probably.
I didn't vote in this challenge because I couldn't find myself being fair-minded enough to vote on a picture of a burning candle when the challenge stated "use candlelight to create the impact...." Quite frankly a picture of a burning candle has no impact on anything IMO. Unless it's illuminating something, it's just a burning candle.
Didn't mean to hijack your thread. Sorry.

left comment on 1st. 2nd is good too, but I think lots of voters wanted to see a lit candle in the pic. 2nd certainly would have benefited from the "cute" factor. Mine didn't have one and I believe it suffered.
