Comment from Susan F. M. T.
Annie,
A beautiful picture of the little Carved Wooden figurine of the young boy clutching the golden heart the Candle in front of him bathing him in golden light like a child watch a celebratory fire out in the open on a cool autumnal evening, Artistic composition, framing & lighting with superb camera techniques with sharp focus.

Amazing and magical, I love the painterly look of the figure. It made me do the Jack be nimble nursery rhyme in my head.

Don't you just love all of the Willow Tree fugue's, we have a collection of them.
This is a wonderful contest entry.

I really like the way the candle light plays against the figure and mixes into the background.

initial impact is very good. i like the candles giving off a nice glow. the figure of the boy glowing in the light is very becoming. the boy's simple figure holding the golden heart draws everything together. nice work.

I have this statue. My friend's son died, and she bought me this figurine in remembrance of him. You have done an amazing job in the lighting. Looks like a beautiful painting.

I think it is gorgeous! Great idea and really great use of mixed media tools.
Such a small candle is a source of a miracle: light turning into fluid, transparent, magic gold: this boy does have golden heart, shining through.

Good luck with the contest.

interesting story telling and idea, but the light is too bright, even to the point it hurts the viewer eyes

good creativity and presentation

thanks for sharing
