Greetings from the Critique Club!
I like this as it's a very straightforward idea but well executed. Candles are a great metaphor in this case as parties start off lively and interesting but by the end, well...they're burnt out. The tinsel(?) in the bg is a good touch, adds dof and atmoshpere. Composition isn't mind-blowing but doesn't need to be for a shot like this, and as you're new, I wouldn't blame you for playing it safe here the first few entries. A 5.4 is not bad at all for a first entry here and you finished in the top 50%, so you're already doing quite well :-)
So technically it looks like you know at least the basics, now push things a little more in the creative realm. This site can be very daunting if you take the challenges too seriously; think of it more as gym, a place to come and develop various aspects of your photography, and the challenges as a test of what you can do.
Feel free to PM me with any questions,
