Hello, moonjeong! How lucky I am to get to look at another of your images for the Critique Club.
Your image is just lovely, with good composition and a nice mood. Did you use a tripod? I think it would have helped this very nice photograph if it was just a little sharper and a tripod is good for that under difficult lighting conditions. Then, with a tripod, you could experiment with using a lower ISO to make it even more colorful.
I guess people were looking for literal candles providing "candlelight" rather than the quotation you offered. That may be why your score is not higher!
I hope you are pleased with this image. It is a nice one.
I am open to OOTB thinking but this is not OOTB this is "if i titled this just right i can find an excuse for including it in the challenge". The sun is not candlelight. It is a ball of gas. Sometimes it is better to just sit out.
And the candlelight is where? Did you enter the wrong challenge? I find this not to meet the challenge, and I don't give scores that are high for shots that don't, even if the rules say you shouldn't vote them low if they don't meet challenge. Unfortunately, a lot of people tried very hard to take what is a difficult shot of a flame, and yours is a landscape/seascape shot. It's very pretty, but just perplexing to see it here in this challenge. I voted this very low. Sorry.
