Comment by Lustre:
The photo is slightly blurred / out of focus. This is no doubt a result of the low light, possibly combined with a hand-held shot. Your framing is good and it's a lovely shot. You should try it again with a tripod, or resting the camera on something (and a broom handle perhaps). It could make a lovely photo if exposed correctly and slightly more in focus.

Image is a bit noisy. Use a program such as neat image to remove this excess noise. Detail in the face is a bit lost in the shadows. jgillard6

The soft-focus effect is beautiful and adds dramatically to the shot. Very nice.

Excellent mood, you've matched your song title extremely well! I don't know if the extreme softness of the picture is being caused by a focus issue (doesn't appear to me that's the case at first glance), or by some other mechanism, but I particularly like the softness and mood it creates. Now if there was a way to get some parts of it sharper, like just the child's face, I think the photo would be enhanced even more. Technically, the photo is a little too dark, a slight levels adjustment, even if it blows out a bit of the highlights slightly, might make the rest of the picture look better (you can always crop out the highlight since it will appear in the bottomright corner)
