Well, first ever challenge submission. Not the most original idea drawing with candle light but it's all I could come up with for now.
Went for the more pchychedelic look.

Raw treatment: increased exposure abit. Sharpened.
Photoshop:
crop - some dead space on the right
hue/sat layer - hue all way to - 160 or so.
Curves, levels, a bit more sharpeninig.

My goals for this challenge are not to get the brown.... :)

Big ups for the technical effort, but it is quite noisy. I know this is hard to avoid on most digi-cams.

Interesting but lacking. A lot of noise and distractions in the photo. The photo lacks interest/subject. Perhaps a better subject would have made for a more interesting photo Good luck in this challenge. <5>
