Lovely colours, especially the extremely hard and bright yellow and blue on the left hand side works out very nicely with the contrasting dark parts on the right hand side of the shot. Did you intentionally look for this sharp contrast in colours?

I love how the contrast and garish colors contribute to the posterization of the photo. I also like how the detailed yellow pipe hasn't taken away attention from the bright yellow pipe- allowing your vision to travel back INTO the photo.
