Awesome - definitely a fine still life example. Love the composition, tones, warm colors, lighting and the painting-like quality. Must be a 10!

There is something compelling about this pic, I really like it. The only tiny nit-pick I have is the cropped out cork on the bottle.

This meets the challenge – it’s inanimate and arranged. Didn't like the box. Shame - the ambience of the colours on the candlestick and the flask is unreally good.

Good shot, but overprocessing has taken away some of the wonderful textures.

I can't help but think that the candle -- assuming it's a candle -- is rather phallyc... but I really like this shot! Nice colors and sharpness.

I know that lots of people hate comments about titles, but I'm not voting based on it...

I really like this title. It's got a great dual meaning that makes the already attractive picture even more attractive.

Still as in no movement, but still as in still around, and again lends to the repetition both in the drizzled wax and in the obvious cycle that a candle and holder goes through.

Very nice.
