A pretty good entry into the competition posted here! Those flames you captured in your fine and classical composition seem pretty big compared to the size of the room. Sharpness and exposure are good. Well done and good luck!

Cool!
I dunno' much about Hinduism ( besides that one of our Goddesses is very similar to one that certain Hindu sects hold in high regard ) but I'm enjoying this interesting picture,not only because it's a well-photographed piece,but because of it's pleasingly 'Out of the Ordinary' character!
'Blessed Be',my friend!

Glad you liked it. I had the kind of usual fire photos. But I chose this because of its story on traditional values. Thanks very much my friend for your encouraging comments.

Where are the reviewers on FAR?
I've seen this yesterday but until now the initial bonus points are still there.....

Okay, I know it waits for me...;-)

Excellent choice of subject.
Aptly captured for the contest theme...
Diminishing perspective gives a better depth....
I like that the subject is really the focal point here.....

Striking red color is eyeCATching.

Best of luck in the contest!

Thanks for sharing...

It is for a contest and from my experience i can confirm that it will not find favour with majority of viewers. I thank you for your time and fine review. Much appreciated!

Well captured to show this ceremony, very interesting artists notes to accompany this scene, well shown flames to conduct the ceremony, well focused, the image is clear, lighting is managed well, colors and tones appear natural. Well composed and presented! Best wishes to you in this contest!

Wow I love those flames and the clarity of the caoture with all that movement. The participants too are very finely detailed. You write interesting notes. Thank you for sharing.
