Thanks a lot for the nice and in depth going comment, Visar! Indeed, the place had that typical kind of "regularity", if you like, that almost invades the image automatically. So, it's all about geometry, that monotonous and rigid geometry that looks like leaving nothing to coinsidence.
This one is rather the "flat" kind of depiction while AJ's idea approaches better what I am doinf now, namely depth and perspective of the depth. Both are good if applied appropriately, I guess.
As about accuracy... well, of course there is such a thing. Accuracy is only a measure for the maximally accepted... inaccuracy! ;-)
Cheers!
Nick

i guess it is always a matter of trying as many as possible ways in having an image work. and far too many times, all attempts are 'accurrate' (if there is such a thing). In your presented version Nick, i like the symetry and how all the paterns are arranged. there is firm lines and very well defined in shapes, and this image is much about it. shapes, of future environemnts- depicted with much taste. In fact, i could not tell much between the suggested crop by AJ and the one you presented. For me, they both work fine- the both crops suggest some sort of repetition of the same forms placed in different depths which despite almost monocromatic monotone (looking) there a beautiful variation of the same!
i like it a lot Nick, cheers, v.

What a pity that I didn't think of it when I was shooting, AJ! I think it would enhance the image a lot. Sigh! Next time!
Thanks a lot again,
Nick

I think the adjusted perspective gives a good indication of what the image could look like from a higher POV. Yes, that's what I had in mind.

Thanks a lot for the nice detailed comment, AJ, and even more for the suggestions. You really nailed that exactly - it was a try to make something like a monochrome with just an object on color with just the camera. I have a better one than this, but that's another series for the future.
Your suggested crop did work well. Not a huge difference but rather the small difference with a big result. (Attachment, left) Thanks a lot for that!
After the crop, and trying to follow your suggestion for a higher PoV, I tried a perspectivic adjustment just for "mimicking" such a higher PoV. Was that what you meant? (Attachment, right). If so, then the compression was not very strong. But still I can "see" that the perspective would be strengthend. I can't remember exactly but I think that there was another of those colorful parallelepipeds behind me. So, I really think that I should try a shot standing on that thing. Or did you mean something else?
Cheers and thanks again!

Crop and perspectivic change after AJ's ideas. |

There's and interesting contrast of rectangles and circles, colours and mono. This image needs to be kept simple. Perhaps crop the horizontal concrete joint at the top, and maybe even some of the foreground (although then you would lose or cramp one of the circles - any way to get a higher POV to compress the main elements of the scene?)
