The background you chose works very well with the composition. Helps to make it seem like it was photographed outside. Nice glow from the flame highlights the pine giving a great hue.

Give the picture a slightly bit more depth of field would be more pleasing to the eye. Gave you an "8"

I think this is a great picture. Both the candle and the evergreen would be filling the room with scents. If the candle is a cinnamon one it would be a Christmas scent filled room. I think I would like it if there was a little, only a little bit less on the left side and the top. The way it is now is just a little bit too dark to balance out the light on the right side. But thats just my opinion. ;)

Candles are tough for a scents/aromas challenge - especially since I don't know the scent... looking at this image, I can't imagine what I should be smelling. I like the Pine branches around it, and the way they are highlighted by the candle glow. There just isn't a lot holding my interest.

Very inventive composition. Gives a nice scenty, warm, glowing feeling to it. Well done.

Nice glow of the candle. Warm feeling, can almost smell the pine.
