Knocking on your front door

What do you think?

is this scanned? you've got some dust. It has potential, but again, too dark. I feel it would benefit better from a different composition. How about this...the lit door in the bottom left corner, and the open night in the rest, with a vertical frame?

I think Brent has a good suggestion as to the composition. Did the brightness of the light have anything to do with the exposure? By that I mean did you underexpose in any way to avoid the light from being totally blown out?

Yea I did Underexpose just because on my point and shoot I can either go at a 3 sec exposure to a 1/4 sec. So its a compromise anywhere.
Thanks for your opinions.

Try cropping the image to only show the doorway. The one light source looks good.
