Very Christmasy, though not very candley. ;-) It's a bit dark and the focus is a bit soft, but I like the composition and like that you used black-and-white. You might want to experiment with PhotoShop (or equivalent) to try to artificially sharpen the image some, and perhaps adjust intensity levels to whiten Santa's beard up a bit. :-)
Nice shot of Santa, and would make a nice Christmas card, but unfortunately, I see no candle or even candlelight here. I had to vote this way down due that reason. I do believe that others should stay within the confounds of the actual contest description, and to me this DNMC.
