Challenge didn't specify that the candle needed to be in the shot. Just that you use candlelight for the lighting.

It's amazing that in a challenge named "candlelight", you'd get marked down because the candle isn't actually seen in the shot.

I really liked this & gave it 9 - didn't matter to me that the candle wasn't in the shot, it looked like candlelight & I loved the spooky horror feel, so well done.

I see some light, but I suppose it is candlelight. I voted this way down, and the reason being it is not showing any candle in it. It is difficult to take candlelight shots, and I understand you were being creative without it, but to me this just isn't a great shot by not meeting challenge standards.

Wonderful colors leading me to believe this is candlelight and a great subject matter for this theme. I do wish I could see the candlelight in the shot.
