Thanks for the comments. As is probably pretty obvious I am just getting into photography seriously.
I have a question about this challenge and my photo now that its done if anybody could help.
The description was "Contre-jour is a photographic term that means 'against the light' and refers to pictures taken when the camera is pointing towards (or roughly towards) the main light source."
With all respect to the people who took the time to comment on my photo, my question is; since the candles are the main light source and I am shooting directly at them, why does it miss the challenge? I would like to know for future shots.
I completely understand the techinal deficiency in the photo (the tilt, etc.) and thank everyone for being honest.
So thanks again and hope that somebody can give me some advice on the question. Thanks!!! |

Doesn't really look like a contre-jour, more like a "source of light" shot. But nice candles anyway ! |
