Cropped, then adjusted Saturation, Contrast, Levels, and removed Noise. Single light source only, after midnight, from the 5-bulb chandelier, about 5-degrees to my right and 70-degrees up. The camera was on 12-Second Timer, in the dark adjacent room past the archway, 7-Feet up, Zoomed in just a touch, 15.1mm Focal Length. Prop used is a Victorian garden decoration, a reflective sphere, like M.C. Escher used in 1935.

I love this composition and the execution is... well, fantastic!
Ok, so it's noisy as anything and it looks like it's been cropped like a crazy white-tailed bass, but that's hardly your fault...
As might be guessed, I do have a bit of a soft spot for Escher.. ;)
For the challenge, I think you might have been treading on thin ice with that chandelier... technically a light stand with multiple lights is still multiple lights... Same would go for a chandelier I would think...
