Thanks for all the comments! This really surprised me that it did so well.

I'm really sorry to see this didn't do better than it did. I was one of your 10's, because I thought there was a lot of power and emotion behind those candles. Maybe not enough of the DPC community knows what the candles symbolize... In any event I thought it was a very well done photo technically, that captured the emotion of a holy place, which was my criteria for a 10.

Keep up the good photography! :)

I was actually going to enter a photo very similar to this, even the angle :)

Elegant image which says a lot with simple elements. The rest of the holy place is implied - but it works well.

I like what you got here. Great idea. Good angle. DOF could be a little deeper, but it still works now. Hope this does well.
