Hi Paul, As I was switching between the two photos, I couldn't decide which one I liked better. I opened Candles II (f/22)first. It grabbed me right away. Very sharp defined candle holders. Lovely curvy light reflections on the left of each of the holders. Then I opened Candles (f/2.5) which isn't a bad photos, but it doesn't grab me the same way that that Candles II did.
