Well, its a good job holding the camera steady after you are a few drinks down!

The label "brook" is very dark and not making a good photo. The yellow orange glow gives the photo a nice effect.

Default Too dark

If you can try using a flash with a very narrow snoot to give bit more light, or increase the exposure time, in my opinion its a bit dark.

I would have rotated the candle to get hte label out of hte way I like the darkness and glow of the candle I think if you increased exposer you would lose much of that effect.
