I realise the light source was a mistake - and it was in fact a candle and not a light bulb as many thought. The exposure of 8sec turned it into a mini sun.

Meets the challenge but would have been much more emotional with a candle instead of the bulb. Nice idea and good composition.

I like the shot, very cool idea. The light is very interesting, please tell us how it works. The only things I don't like are that it's got quite a bit of CCD noise, and it's a little unbalanced color-wise. Original and creative photo though.

I hope this was staged, if not I feel very very dirty looking at this, like some kind of a peeping tom, ickk, going to shower now.......

A beautiful situation but too put-on to my eyes. A better result taking a picture straight in front of the pairs so that both faces would have been in a picture. A lamp is quite strange.

nice Idea, but the lamp is too bright. If you could hide it outside the frame it would be much better

That glaring light bulb ruins the mood for me.

light source might have been better out of the frame.

I like everything but the bulb. I'm not sure what to say about that constructively.
Uh Oh!!! It's a candle? I keep looking to make sure. 7
