Photographer's Note
It was 'Deepavali' - the Indian festival of lights- I was mesmerized by the beauty of these candles at a friend's place. Look at it with half closed eyes and you may want to make a wish! Let me know your thoughts.

You controlled exposure and captured lights very well and so the reflection is caught OK. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful shot. The candles and flames look very dramatic against the black background. What is the festival of lights all about?

Great shot, so clear and inviting.
I wish the central candle was lit up too.
I suggest getting clearing the photo of object to the up left edge of the image.

I see a pattern of light, shadows and red color in your pictures.I liked the composition, very nice shot indeed. Feel as if the candles are alive. You may darken the top left and bottom to make it more soothing. Great job!
