Beautiful light and background... you chose the right time in the plant's growth to suggest a movement. It's almost an explosion, inspiring both fear or admiration.

It's green and quite beautiful, but I doubt it is "Macro"...;-)

Glass Pyramid

Comment:
I voted 6 because the photo is technically correct, but it could be more interesting to look at : maybe at night, or using another point of view (from inside the pyramid, or closer to the pyramid). You also could have played with the sun reflections, or waited for another type of clouds (although they should not appear in a "straight" theme). Well done, but will be better next time : good luck !

Party is over

Thanks for your comments and notes !
My first idea was actually to blew them out, but I did a first try... and there was almost no smoke ! :-(
This is why I let them burn until they blew out, shooting a few photos meanwhile, and chose this one where most flames were still on. Shortly after, the light on the blew out candles was not interesting.
