Make a wish and blow out the candle. Beautiful colors. I love the framing and the angle is great. very yummy looking photo. love how you captured the flame. great shot and good luck in the challenge.
This is a great shot. Composition is first class – and mouth watering… Lighting works, and the candle is a nice touch… The only flaw – and it's tiny – relates to the reflected glare in the plate. Bounced flash might have gotten rid of that. Good luck (8)
I didn't think I would like a cake / birthday shot but I was wrong. I like this photo. I would prefer none of the table visible, as well as the glare / reflection off the plate at the bottom. What if you tried this in the dark, allowing the candle flame to illuminate the plate? Have you tried it before? Good job.
Good lighting and DOF. The only thing that I don't like about the composition is the table at the upper and lower right hand corners. I find that to be just a little distracting. lhall
Yum. I like the bright colors on this. my only suggestion would be to move the cookie down a little so that the candle doesn't touch the top edge. karmat
A nice colorful photo... it would appeal to me as depicting childhood even without the candle, although it wouldn't have fit the name. And... don't use the name of the challenge in the title, no way, no part, no how!
Simple, good honest, bright childhood. I like the bright colors and smiley face, and the tilted candle flame keeps the eye moving in a circle, which emphasizes the ice cream bar.
