Definitely meets the challenge. Visually it is not an exciting image - perhaps focusing more on one burner/flame would have helped, or giving the shot a different angle.

Like how you don't have anything in the background to distract from your subject.

Just doesn't jump out at me. Nice focus, but blending of the edges could have been done better.

Hah, I like this take on the burner, very much like something out of a faded 1970s magazine. However, probably not special enough to do very well with the colors a bit out of tweak.

I would have preferred a close up shot of one of the burners. IMO the background should have been left in or maybe desaturated if you wanted to make the stove stand out. The edges are pretty distracting for me.

Hello. The image to me is a little soft, the light harsh and some detail is lost. The composition seems to be more of the range than the fire. A closer shot of the burner, I think would have been better for meeting the challenge. As you know DPC wants WOW and this I am afraid lacks the WOW factor.

Gave you a 5 for meeting the challenge.

the white background doesn't help this any ... makes it hard to look at ...
