I think that this is great!! I wish that there was more focus on the texture of the match though. The wooden match is overexposed. I would have cropped the bottom off under the match. I think that with different cropping and lighting, this entry would have done much better. I hope this was helpful. I am really tired. Good luck in future challenges and God Bless.

maybe a tighter crop so the image is not so square? A narrower format would imply smoke going up. and the really interesting smoke is in middle vertically.

The straight angle of the match does´nt go well in portrait format. You should have used landscape. (But that´s only my opinion ofcourse :) Like it though...I´ll just turn my screen 90 degrees.

Good attempt, a little flame would have put it over the top.

I like this. I am glad you kept it in color - I've seen others that went to grayscale and this touch of warm in the wooden match stick is interesting. Very crisp detail.
