To me, that title suggests passing responsibility to someone (passing the torch), not so much "time"... But the picture is cool regardless..

You did really well capturing the color and detail of the flame but the message is a bit lost in the scale of the subject (ie. a small match verses a large torch or something of that sort). I would like to see some light on the hand. It would also have been nice to see another hand accepting the flame. you did really well using the rule of thirds on this!
