Response to Child B&W portrait by amateur comments please?

from tom meyer (twm@mindspring.com)
What Shawn said, and a little less fill light (according to my preferences). If this were an environmental photo, the lighting ratio would be fine as is, I could imagine a second light source. But this black background gives me no inkling that there might be another light to the right, it looks surreal, kinda like the fill light on the Starship Enterprise... where does that light come from? A big fill card in space? A nearby planet? Solar panels on Voyager?... t

p.s. Nice work for a "beginner". You've been thinking about it for a while?
