Ahh.. nicely done. I find your interpretation to be much more appealing with the softness and darker areas. Not sure many took the time to compare the original.
much better than the original, I'm concerned if this is actually your ceiling. I think you did a great job considering the subject matter you were working with. I think the only thing I would like is for the lighting to be a little more even, not too much though because I like how it goes from bright to dark from the corner
