Judi, I actually thought that this was an very interesting shot and angle to have taken it from. The processing seemed a little "off" on it but, now that you've explained that it was done on a laptop, I can understand how it went this way. I do all of my editing on a laptop simply because I don't have a desktop nor, an LCD monitor and I can say that my photos have been not doing well because of it. I simply cannot see the blow-outs or noise that others see in my shots on LCD or LED monitors. :(
Even though the lights are blown out, the overall image is underexposed. The darkness takes away the detail of the lovely organ. The green hue from the lights also doesn't make this image very appealing. Green makes it looks scary, dirty, or foreboding, and that's probably not how you wanted this to come across. You could adjust the white balance to fix that.
Interesting perspective, blown out lights are a bit distracting. Photo seems to have an odd colour tint to it, sort of pinkish. A bit grainy too, but it's your unique perspective that makes this shot.
Oh, and I've never seen a pipe organ in a Salvation Army Church before but I don't think this ia a SA church. :)
