I think it's a cunningly close shot of a bar of some kind, probably metal given the colour. Here's my reasoning: when looking at a cylindrical object, and this can even apply to a tree-trunk, even though light may be falling on it from one side, a certain amount always "wraps around" and becomes visible on the opposite side. This has that thin edge of light which I think shows it to be a cylindrical shape, a bar.

That concludes today's painting lesson.
