Greets from the Critique Club

First off, I'd like to say that this shot has potential for being a really great shot.

The colors from the led light on your finger (?) against the flame really complement each other well.

The photo is extremely noisy and seems a bit over sharpened in places. Perhaps some NeatImage, Noise Ninja, or USM would have helped this out.

Also, since this was an advanced editing challenge, you could have cloned out some of the stray movements/light that don't really fit with the flow of the rest of it.

Some have said to crop the background, giving more focus to the subject. I can agree with that, or make it so the background is all black, giving it the negative space needed to really draw you into the center.

Well thought out, a bit of better PP and this type of shot is going to be up there.

Very oversaturated, and the flame is way too blown out.

i really like this. i would have liked to see some of the surrounding black space cropped out with a better emphasis on the active image areas.
