looks noisy on my screen, which may be the plan, but the small flare and the speck in front of hand are distracting.

That's not a real hand is it? Or did you neat image the hell out of it? It looks plastic. Great composition. You got some jaggies on the top side of the wrist from jpeg compression.

I really like the idea, but for me it's just too grainy, and the foreground is too obvious - I'm not sure how you could have got around this. Well taken though

Nice play on words in your title. I am amazed when I see someone exert so much effort and time on a picture and then blunder when spelling their title. I think it should be (Handelabra) , Enough of that! Nice job with a difficult subject, the flame is still a bit bright, and there is a light spot almost in the center of the frame that distracts. This might just be the difference in monitors though. Good job.

Very cool idea. I gave it an 8 but if it had a little less noise I would have given it a 9.

Commenting only. The thumbnail looked interesting. Now that it's open, I see that it's an actual candleholder and am a bit disappointed. The light was captured well. A slight curves adjustment might darken the black some, or changing the black point. It would also help with the dark noise. gl

Neat concept and nicely composed. Looks like there are some jpeg artifacts on the hand, though.

This is REALLY striking. I just love it. Definitely one of the best in the challenge! 10

The CG hand is a little "off" (I assume it must be a computer-generated image, as it doesn't appear to be real), but otherwise a great idea & shot! Any chance you could stage it with a human hand? Regardless, nice work!

The curves on this shot are so relaxing. It is very peaceful and worth putting on the wall as a poster.

It looks like the hand is modeled in 3ds max
