This is nice, Cotty, but I'm not sure where you want to go with it. The scene is a bit complex for my taste in this sort of thing, the background is a distracting.
Simplify, simplify .. crop tighter, minimize distractions, draw attention to the specific details that express what you would like the viewer to see.
