I decided to check and as it turns out I ranked this one exactly 20th in 
my scoring.  I liked the choice of subject, I found its intimacy 
"charming" and was impressed with the technique in places, especially 
the glow of the fire, and the steam is even pretty good with a little 
imagination from the viewer.  But while the textures all seemed 
appropriate, they didn't seem fine-tuned enough to create an overall 
illusion.  In such an intimate frame, you are really looking to be 
transported.
