Cool smoke and nice DOF. The burning areas look dull for some reason, like the red channel was desaturated. The composition is kind of scattered with no obvious focal point- if the sticks were on a diagonal, it might form a nice path for your eye to follow.

You've taken something very "un photogenic" and proved that straight ugly sticks can be made into a wonderful image. Great use of the smoke and green background to make it happen.

Great contrast in colors and the lines of the smoke make an interesting picture..... 8

I like the way you have used the light to highlight the smoke from the sticks..combined with the shallow dof, it gives the image impact.

I don't like the smell of these incenses, but I do like the colors and the smoke you've captured. Nice..good light on the background.

Would have more impact with either more saturated color (maybe selectively boosting the red ember) or in B&W

It looks like the smoke created a 3 behind the middle stick of incense. Very cool.

Interesting shot - the smoke tendrils are evocative.

Nice smoke! The background is more interesting than the incense sticks themselves, so I wonder if this shot would look better with more light on the sticks. Regardless, I like this shot a lot just as it is.

I like the shallow depth of field. Works really well here.

Interesting, almost abstract. Not quite crisp enough for that "wow" factor. But very appealing.
