    I quite like this too! But I think the green should be cropped out; it seems out of place from the rest.

    I almost like, the green like Gem says is out of place but if it was cropped I think I would throw the photo out of balance . I would either lose the green in the shot or add maybe some blueish/greenish hued boxes in the the colour range. The blur to the lower right hand bottom is a bit distracting, love the concept, just a bit of tweaking and I think you have something.

    Interesting - thx!
    I too wasn't completely satisfied with the green and i might try a crop. The blur on the lower right though, for me is actually one of the elements that makes the shot and was deliberately chosen by choosing f4. I find it adds a 'reflective quality' to the boxes above and adds to the optical play in this shot. Always interesting to hear what people see.

    many thx - marko

    I like the colours actually. It's pretty much a classic palette I think. The depth of field is interesting too. You begin to think parts of the photo are reflections that are not.
