the image is sharp, i will give you that but "five candles in a box" pretty much says it all. I almost wonder if a photo needed to follow. Composition wise, i think it would have been stronger if you cropped some of the black from the bottom so the candles werent smack in the center of the image.

I would love to see this cropped so the box is on the lower third line instead of so near the center. Well exposed.

Interesting cut off on the (I assume) black box. I am glad you choice an odd number.

Nice idea! I think I would have liked them less centered though.

I like the candles but not sure of shortness of them and the straight line.

Good technical capture of the candles and it does meet the challenge, I just feel that it could be more interesting. Maybe instead of just a row you could have taken it from one side and used a shallow DOF to get an interesting effect?

sharp, strong and dramatic image simply done.

Don't like the effect....had you taken the candles out of the box I'd have given this some good marks.
