I would say it is interesting but not a photo that I would spend a lot of time looking at.

Yeah, what Lputman said. I think it's because in these types of images you typically don't see the person who's holding the light and the person being drawn around tends to be sharper. Plus, I think it'd help if you changed the WB a bit..

Plus it's just weird to me to have the candle go pretty much just over her eyes.
