Bright light in my night

I've always thought of some amazing paintings as ones that look like photographs. This however is the exact opposite--a photograph that looks like an amazing painting. The simple lines of the subject, and lack of features create an amazingly emotional photograph. The beautiful lighting work adds to the overall feel and look and draws the attention immediately to the subject. The only thing I would recommend be different is to have softened the outer lines of the subject to fit in with the rest of the photograph. They seem to be a little harsh. Otherwise it's an amazing piece of art.
