i would have kept the subject non centered (rule of 3rd they some times say) as well as i think simple subjects can give great pictures by changing the perspective so i would have also tried to click this one from bottom to top etc.
i like the bright light...thanks for sharing

I think this is a very visually interesting subject. I would tighten the crop to bring the primary focus to your subject. I believe that the either the subject or the chain with the bell should be vertically straight. Also, the tone is a little overwarm for my tastes.

Thanks for your inputs... I like the idea of keeping the object noncentered and taking it from different angle, but again it depends on individual's taste :-). I would like to thank GirlyGirl for pointing that either the subject or the chain with the bell should be straight. Once again thanks for looking and commenting!
