Thank you Mary Anne.

Aam, I think the crop improved it. I also noticed the nice way the dappled shade becomes stronger as you move from left to right, lending a pleasant touch to the image.

Is it allowed for one to comment on his/her own photo :) Well, if I may...originally I was referring to the beige color of the pillars being a shade of brown. But looking at it again, it seems the chairs are themselves have different shades of brown. From the lightest, the first, to the darkest, the last.

Cropped it. Hope you like it better.

Opps, forgot Mary Anne's question. These are the back of chairs/benches.

Thank you Pedro, Mary Anne, and Cat. Agree that the OOF area is a little distracting. Will play with cropping and see how it goes. Thank you again the comments & suggestions.

Good colors and repetition of pattern. However, the OOF segment on the left feels distracting because it is in the foreground. I would either increase the DOF or crop off the left quarter, which makes for a much stronger image, I think. What is this structure, anyway?

Very well seen. I like the repetitive pattern.
