Shiny light refracting objects can be a natural for a photographic subject. Photography itself is painting with light, and a subject such as this seems created for the photograph.
-
The impact of this is substantial, you captured the entire fixture within the frame of the photo. You really managed a terrific exposure, having all parts visible, but the bulbs themselves are not blown out. The slightly offset composition helps give a little interest beyond the chandelier itself.
-
If I would have any point for improvement, it may be to use a wider angle on the lens, thus decreasing a little the relative size of the chandelier in the overall composition. This would allow a little more dark area, and some more offset, that I think would bring more balance to the piece. Though sometimes the environment doesn't allow for wider views.
-
Overall a definite keeper, that you should be proud of.
What do you think?

LOL thankfully its not big enough... is it. to be THAT chandelier crashing down on stage. The lack of any light beyond certainly gives a nice black background. Leaves your mind to dream up what is behind or believe it floats in a dark void.

Nope, not big enough for that. Maybe the one in my livingroom is... but I don't think i can achieve the same black background with that chandelier... It's too large and gives off too much light.
