Good shot. The smoke plume and flying debris add to an already great capture. Well done.

Best lighting on the match of the matchsticks so far. Don't know why the flame looks like it's behind the match head, although it has wonderful colors. Also, the spots surrounding the flame are really distracting, looking more like dust and noise than any throwoff from the combustion.

I truly never saw such an ugly match in my life, you must be short of timber in your region ;-) It's quite a contrast to the smooth and nicely coloured flame and smoke. I bet you were tempted to clone out the flying ash bits...
