I like both pictures, but this is My favourite too. Colin's idea looks interesting, add one, or crop left hand side of the picture. Nice idea and implementation.

Looking really good, hope you having fun! You may be fed up with playing with thse now, but how about just one more on the far end of the row to make it look like the go on to infinity ...?

A pinch of Colin's advice, a dash or Marc's... Oh, and I added a bare candle on the left hand side for slightly more ambient light.

I really like the idea of this one and how the candle lights gradually get more spread out the further out of focus they are. It’s an excellent concept; the reflection is a good idea too. Here’s where I think you may be able to improve: slightly higher view point to give a more dynamic angle to the row of lamps; Make sure all the reflections are in the image; Try spacing the candles asymmetrically, near ones closer, far ones further apart.

Marc - I agree. I have some ideas to help it along I'm trying tonight.

This is getting better, but not quite there. I sadly have no solution to provide in this one... Marc

I think I prefer this one. I like how the OOF lights seem such a mystery and then you see the candle and OH, now I see! At least that is how I saw it and I like it a lot.
