Nicely done: an expression of rage, something that each of us has experienced. Simple and easy to understand. I suppose that's why I enjoy this photo: it's not too complex that I have to reel wondering what the story is. Rather, I can apply my own story to this common experience between all people. The colors work well to create a contrast. Blue and watery in the background, red and fire in the forefront. And the contrast adds to the story: fire in a sea of water droplets. It's amusing to see such a calm around the flame. Perhaps the one things that I have against this picture, only to be very nit-picky, is in the composition. Everything is quite centered, and that's not always bad. For here, it emphasizes the simplicity of the photo, though I may caution that an over-emphasis on simplicity in this photo may end up being boring.

Overall, solid concept, simple design, good contrast of colors and emotions, and much meaning can be derived from it. Thank you for this!

You have the flame covering only half of the heart... It would look really cool if there was a golden ring (like a halo) attached to the top of the other side.

How did you do that, if you do not mind me asking. I really like this photo. You captured the colors of the flame perfectly, and I also like how the background is in cool tones, and the focus is in warm tones. Great job!
