Nice twist on the ole photographer's shadow in the shot ;)
The golden light really makes this wonderful. I agree with Jim that's there this tension between your shadow and the suberb textures and lines. I like it!

This is great. You have to click on the thumbnail and see it large to really appreciate the wavy lines. To me, the thing I like is that there's a tension. On the one hand, my eye is drawn to the shadow, but then I feel pulled over to the right to see the bold wavy lines, so my eyes seem to snap back and forth between the shadow which draws me to it and the ever more bold wavy lines on the right that almost try to pull my eyes out of the frame to the right. I probably look like a cat watching a ping-pong match, and for some reason, I like that. Jim H.
