Good attempt, but photos like these need to be sharp corner-to-corner, which isn't the case in the lower-left!

Your image doesn't say much to me. I like the gold tones. The light is most interesting in the center of the image. The background creases in the drape are distracting. Please do not take offense, but your straight on angle of view is not interesting. I suggest you think about what you want the viewer to see and then play around with the perspective, the focus, the depth of field, etc. Maybe an angle of view looking down the strings would help you with what your trying to say.

I will often look at my images and ask my self, how could I have improved the image if I could do it over. Stay with it and have fun!
