Nice setup and capture. good focus on the hands. Hard to tell the candle is lit (who cares) because of the great colors. The flash is just a touch to bright for me..toned down just a touch...perfect. Nice work
I like the concept, but the foreground lighting is too strong and makes the picture unnatural looking. I find the shirt to be a distraction too. Maybe grouping the objects tighter and cropping tighter would help.
A great scenic - lit with both backlight and flash. The border holds it together - coming from one who normally doesn't like them much. I wish you could tie it to a actual destination somehow.
very reminiscent of shots I've seen in a few "getaway" brochures, so well done on that aspect. I would have liked to have seen the wine bottle, glass, and candle bowl in focus more. It would have given the image a little more weight, and a better strength to lead your eye to the background... which, by the way, is stunning.
it's a beautifully crafted scene otherwise, so keep it up :)
Cool concept. Regarding composition the bottle is a little unworthy.The same about the streaky shirt. Maybe a cropping removing bottle would improve the picture.
Nice blurring of the background but I wish the glass on the table (middleground) were in focus too, but that could just be personal preference. Light from flash a little bright, creating harsh shadow between hands. A bounced or diffused flash would've worked nicely.
