Since the flame is enclosed in glass, I can't see how this is a "candle in the wind". Also I'm wondering how you got the flame to be the same color as the candle.

Hmmm. I think I like this more after seeng it a few times. Seems a tad out of focus, but otherwise nice. Good colors.

The shot would could have been stronger, if the candle was shot more off center, or maybe as a macro shot.

The lighting makes this an interesting photo.

Doesn't imply enough motion.

The title allowed me to interpret motion into this picture, though I cannot infer that from just the picture.

I like the black background. A clean candle would have made a nicer contrast, I think.

There is something confusing about this picture it almost looks like you blue toned the whole thing.

the cool greenish cast to this conflicts with the warm flame, sepia might have been a better choice.

Subtle. Soot on the candle detracts, and the composition isn't the most interesting, but nice.

This is not really what I would call a stop action shot.

I am being drawn to the top, flameless portion of your candle - good pic of flame though.

pretty candle. nice white balance. hard to really get the impression of motion from this one.

Nice composition - I'm curious as to how you got the flame as solid white, yet the wax turquoise.

A blue flame? What kind of candle has a blue flame? Hue alterations are not allowed by challenge rules.

that's stop action allright.

original interesting subject but maybe a little small and insignificant

I saw this same phenomenon in the popcorn photo in this challenge. Your candle flame is absorbing the blue light from the rest of the image. I'm not sure that a candle flame is the best choice of subjects for a 'stopped motion' challenge. The composition of this photograph is nice. I'm not impressed with its association with 'stopped motion'.

A fresher candle might have been less dirty and given an overall cleaner picture ? Framing is a bit too loose, could do with being closer.

Good idea. This would be beautiful if you cropped the image in a tight vertical off center to the right. The emphasis would then visually be placed on the candle and the flame.

I love the color and and the contrast of the black and blue.
