 This is a shot of my stove pilot in the kitchen, while the light was off. The photo is rotated to give wheel or ring effect. Mounted my camera on a Manfrotto and used a half second exposure.

I like this shot a lot. Great blue hues and nice details. I like the darkness of it. Nice composition too.

Quite cool. (pun intended) Good choice to make this vertical. It adds interest. I would like to see it upside down too.

Good detail, good color, good shape. I wonder if this may have looked better landscape?

I think if you rotate it 90 deg ccw it would be a zillion times more appealing. Better execution than most of the other shots, but still not perfect.

Good idea to rotate this, it adds some extra interest, but still it doesn't have that much appeal.
