Very cool...though I'm kinda thinking of Pacman right now.

I dig that filter. Good shot.

This is fun

Can't say I'm fond of the effect but I appreciate the intention!
Composition and exposure are nice.
If there would be any way to suppress the reflection in the bottom candle holder that would be best.
Thanks for sharing!

There are numerous difficulties and drawbacks with having the real stuff. Of course there are problems with nearly all types of weather conditions.

You did a fine job with exposure. Candles are something tricky to get right. Although I would try the center of the composition to be at the right, it’s quite nice. The bokeh is pleasing and offers a balancing piece. The color is definitely a good idea and I like the shadows.
