The clarity is good, although the back of the head at the bottom of the frame does not help, I feel.

(Now where have I heard that title before? ;-) ) Very nice! Though I think I'd prefer this either in black and white, or with a green candle, to maintain more continuity between the figures and the candle. I like the composition though--the candle is more-or-less centered, but the figures are asymmetric. Cool. :)

Nicely lit and I think I would have used a green candle but the red/pink does give it a little pop!

Color in middle contrast nicely with the figures.

The candle light really does give the images a soft glow
