Moody and sombre, to me at least.

So do I. Life isn't perfect and we would all be bored to death if it was. Kudos on a super shot that works so well.

i think i would have preferred this without the candle, as the brightness dominates the subtle rose and toning. i appreciate that it is your lighting source, but maybe epic cloning could have taken it out?

Glad you like it despite the flaws, but with some judicious exposure tuning (highlight and shadow detail recovery), you might like it even better.

i use faststone for pp and played with your entry. lowering the highlights got the candle under control and raising the shadow did bring out a bit more of the flower. but still very pleasing as is.

define "defects" Unusual and rather attractive lighting - not just another flower pic!

The overall colors are very pretty and I like how the flower is backlit. My eye keeps going to the candle while I really want to focus on the rose.

Simplicity in composition is good. Would like a secondary source of light or some shadow brightening to see just a little more detail in the flower.

I like this maybe a little less light on the candle and a little more on the petals, but it still works for me.
