    I like it! Trying some noise reduction effects in lightroom might help your image appear less grainy.

    The colors and texture of the table makes it look like a fire wood burning in the middle of the night. Make me want to go camping, great job.

    Great job of capturing the flame. The vibrant colors and even the blue hues that are present come out really nice in the image.

    I think that the small ambers are effective, they indicate the focus, and you can see the flames better.

    The charcoal rocks almost blend in with the background, so the flame just looks like an outline – very cool!

    I like how you got a very laminar flow with the flame. I like the small blue under the yellow flame. You got a great color gradient.

    I think having the slow shutter speed creates a nice soft feel to the image which is nice, but I think a quicker shutter speed could really freeze the flame in place which might look more interesting

    I think the round bulb looking part at the tip of the flame is nice looking along with the bright color spot there.

    I like that you were able to capture the embers in the middle/bottom, it looks like an upside down smiley face.

  • I like the small burning spots near the base of the flame that add some warmth

    I like how you chose a stack of 3 pieces of charcol. Very balanced image and great use of contrast!

    I really enjoy the laminar flow of the flame. Very great focus on the coals. What do you think about catching more of a glow from the coals?

    I like how smooth the flame’s flow looks in the final image.

    The simplicity of the image is nice to look at. I think a longer exposure would have some nice effects.
