This is the first entry that I absolutly love... So this time, I dont care if I do fine or not...
Took it with the only light of the candle, some PS process (but less that I would imagine)-levels,contrast,variations, some clonning and healing, dudge and burn...
Bye bye!

Greetings from the Critique Club. I have looked over your entry and I have a few comments. First let me say this is a fantastic setup and idea. I wish the image had been a touch sharper. I'd suggest stopping down the lens to maybe f8-f11 and going with a little longer exposure. I'm not sure how that would effect the flame it would depend on how long your exposure ended up. You could get more light on the face without blowing out the candle I think. Overall I think you did pretty good with the concept a few minor adjustments I think this could have scored a bit better. The framing is near perfect for the effect and the title fits well.

That candle really makes her lips shimmer. Good job.

I would like to see a bit of color correction to make things less orange and would like more detail and texture in the model's lips.

Slightly out of focus, but still gives it somewhat of a warming effect. 7.

Nice. The flame is blown out (No pun intended) and I think just not enough WOW. It is a nice shot. 6
