Default Re: Crossing

Very, very nice.

Two small criticisms:

The upper right quadrant seems empty and thus weakens the composition.

And, the two incomplete shapes on the left, that are moving into the frame might be better served by a shape on the right moving out of the frame, thus sustaining the "flow" or movement across the frame. This crossing motion seems to work nicely (for me) with the upward flow of the light path (from bottom to top).

Both problems seem to be reduced by cropping a small amount off of the right side, leaving the circle incomplete, and exiting the frame - as well as getting rid of a bit of the emtpy upper right corner.

This is My opinion only. It is a lovely picture as you have posted it.
