I shot a lot of lighters for this challenge using my new halogen lights. I broke a bulb, cut my finger, burned my arm, but had fun!! I picked one...hope you like it.

Beautiful image. IMHO I would try to run it in a filter utility to soften the sharpening. Great macro focus. Also, a black background negative space would enhance the definition of the colors.
Could this be a convenience store display? I enjoy the close-up, stacked integration between the grey- mechanical/metalic and the coloured - fluid/plastic components of the image....... the lighters become something else besides lighters. 8
Very, very creative! Points for that. The background and lighter heads are the same color? Points for that! And points for keeping my attention long enough to appreciate it. joanns
I like the colors and composition. The only small nit-pick I have is the crop at the top. I wish there was some way to crop it straight on the top like it is on the bottom. Nice pic nonetheless. karmat
Very nice color. I like the bubbles in the fluid. The lighting is really nice, clear and works well for the shot. Angle and framing/cropping are good, and the overall effect of the shot is nice. I think though that I would chose a different background. either that, or make it clear enough that we can see what we are looking at, if it is important to the shot. Overall though, a nice photo. Good luck in the challenge. ~Hbunch7187~
