I took this shot in my living room. I decided to go with a long exposure in order to accentuate the transperancy of the objects and to create a soft tone to contrast with the theme. I used the top of a music stand to create a black backdrop and focus the eyes on this little skirmish.

I am not sure where the light is coming from but you really should have color balanced this image using your white balance in your camera and or a photo program on your computer it would have had an even more powerful effect.
The shallow DOF in this picture is not helping. I cannot see the advantages to having a shallow DOF here. The lighting is a little flat as well. The piece in the foreground, were it closer, it would warrant a shallow DOF more than this as is.
more than just the one piece needs to be in focus - for a conflict you need more than one party. since only one is in focus, i fail to have me attention drawn to an antagonist.
