Okay, first up: that is one excellent picture. I agree with smallspace (and the others) about the shadow. It's far too harsh and dark. Also, the lighting is too white - try softening it towards yellow. When you add the other elements, it's going to change the picture's tonal quality again so you will (probably) have to rework some of the lighting/shadow again. I've also just noticed, the candle's light doesn't seem to be affecting anything. There's no light from it being cast on the figure or the crystal ball. Paul
