This is a great picture, but it is very weird. I couldn't help but be reminded of ILoveEgg. I really do wish that series was back. This guy looks a lot more like a candle wick, now that I look at him. It's easy to think that because of the fire. He also looks like some guy made of gold.
It's amazing how many ideas this picture spawns. There are many different interpretations to it. This thing appears to be hopping. Maybe not, it's just that there are bits of fire behind him. The reflection's cool too.
