Isaac E-Candle lit Crystal

I took this at my house for the still life project. I took it with my Nikon D3200, at 18mm zoom. The ISO was at 100, and the aperture was at f/8. The exposure was 8 seconds, with the only light source being the electronic candles. I have not edited this image at all. I think this image could be better if the front candle was centered, and if the other candles were perfectly symmetrical. I love how the tablecloth fades into black, it causes a feeling that the glasses are isolated and floating. I also love how well all of the refractions and reflections of the candles light up the crystal but not the glass. The picture could not be in a more perfect focus as well.

I really like this picture! The lighting of this image is perfect, and the focus is exactly how you want it to be. The table cloth fading away creates an illusion that the glasses are floating. I cant think of much that could make this image better, nice job!

I like this photograph a lot. The lighting is perfect for this picture and the angle you took this photo at is excellent. The only thing I would change would be to take out the blurriness on the two tall glasses. Overall it is a very good photograph.

This is a really cool picture. I love the warm glowing look it gives. It could be better if you had a cool color to balance it out a little bit.

I really love this photo. The candles could almost be mistaken for real at first glance and the long exposure let it light up perfectly.

Great picture. The lights on the crystal is an awesome effect. The almost bronze effect the candles create makes the image very interesting. Good job with this picture.

I really like this picture! I like the lighting because it's as if the candles are creating reflections from the designs on the glasses. The color really attracts my attention because there are different variations of the same color. I also like that you arranged the candles and glasses so that everything looks organized and calm. Good job!

I lke this photo a lot! The composition is nice. It is very well balanced, but not so generic and uniform is makes the picture uninteresting. Also, the lighting is amazing! it draws the viewer in and really reveals some cool textures in the glass. It is also nice the way you preserved the detail in the fabric! Lastly, the warmth given off by the image and the lighting adds so much character!

I really like this photo! The arrangement of the glasses and candles give the picture more depth. The warm tone that the candle light gives off adds a great affect to the glass and the over all photo.
