Fabulous!
I love matchstick shots, and this one is great. Lots of detail in the stick and head (lit from behind, yes?), good colors in the flame.

Lit from the side. A small lightbox and flash.

I was going to ask where you lit this from. So how many matches did you go through to get it?

LOL - I meant did you ignite the match from behind.

I guess "lit" was a poor choice of words considering we are in a photography forum.*

Around 5 matches. Just about all were workable images. Some were lit from behind and some from the top of the match.
