I'm guessing the element you're trying to portray here is fire, but I think the picnic really distracts from the candlelight. It also seems like the brightest areas, like in the lake and on the path, are a bit too bright.
This would be much more effective if it didn't look like it was noon when it was taken; even dusk would have been better. Your candle flame doesn't take center stage - in fact I have to look for it, and then it seems out of place.
i usually dont make comments like this but i gotta:
1. candlelight in broad daylight?
2. where is the focus on an element?
3. eggs and raw corn for a picnic?
the concept of "elements" is not obvious, though you have included fire and water and produce from the earth. The composition lacks of a main focal point. in addition, the contrast is too high, you have lost detail in water, path, trees and in the dishes
