Selective focus is super. I love this shot, but might suggest removing the in focus withered stamen? on the lower right. Just a thought.

I love this- your eye is just compelled to see the "lit candles" (as I perceive them), in the beautiful soft surrounding color. A bit of magic, I think.

A fine dreamy shot Tom. I like the colour palette and the soft quality of the light.
