snaffles, any chance of sending me a little cake please. This really makes me want to nip out and purchase a big fat cake now.,

Susan,
I like the angle on this! Very creative way to add some punch to an "ordinary" object.

I like what you did to this. Makes me hungry for something sweet. The angle is kind of cool. Good score Susan.

Kinda cool how the colors turned out! I like the tilt!

I like the composition, Susan, including the tilt. The colors are nice and soft. But I like more contrast. Either the background could be brighter or maybe a different color ... not sure.

That looks very good. Great colors, though I'm not sure I like the tilt.

The shadow underneath the cupcake looks odd, and the flame was shot too bright. A different setting probably would have done this photo some good.

The lighting effect around the flame is neat.

good composition and DOF, but overall far too bright

nice angle.. perhaps the contrast is too low.. maybe that's just the monitor I'm sitting on..

Contrast, levels, or curves adjustment would have really made this stand out. I do love the composition and the beautifully delicate colors.
