Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Creative concept. Innovative approach. Imaginative presentation.

An interesting initial impact.
Slight chiaroscuro effect.

Dramatic subtle illumination.

Sharply focused fine features & textures despite the low lit condition...
Great framing...
Thanks for sharing...

Outstanding shot. My conscious mind knows it is the remnant of a candle, but the wispy smoke and colors captured in the glass reminds me of the bottom of a private eye's whisky glass at the end of a dangerous and tough day. Splendid anytime a piece of art makes your mind go wild.

Comment from Trajan
Very intriguing image.
At first I thought it it was a close up is an insects eye or a fish.
You really want to zoom in and see what's going on there.
I love the reflections and subtle colors of green and gold.
The only issue I see is too much black/dark area in the upper right. A little cropping could adjust that.
Nice job!
