Well I took these images the other day and I'm pretty happy with them. I'm really looking for a second opinion on whether they are theme worthy or not and which one is the best of the bunch. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Haven't really come up with a title yet I'm thinking "Candlelight" regardless of entry, but not sure if that's really good enough. I always have trouble with the title.

Thanks for looking,
Mike

    I like #2. Is there a way you could get the whole reflection in that shot?

    I also like #4.

    I love the idea. I prefer #3, but I do like a darker shot to begin with on something like this. good luck!

    Another vote for #2. :D In addition to trying for a complete reflection, is it possible to straighten that line (table edge?) in the background? It might make things too symmetrical, but I'd be curious to see it.

    Definitely #2 or 3.

    Thank you everyone for your comments and suggestions I'm going to go back and see if I've got any shots with the entire candle in there / straight horizontal line. If not I might try and reshoot today or tomorrow.

    Thank you again for your help. Very appreciated!

    Just shot this last night.

    Came out so good now I'm debating whether I should enter it instead of #2 above.
    Am I just having second thoughts or is this something I should consider?
