This is just stunning. The piece has a very calming presence somehow. I love the different tones of the color purple and the yellow center is striking.

Nice purple against black! The different shades of purple really give it depth. The yellow brings the focal point to the center. Details, lighting, shadows, color are all really nice. Overall a nice presentation. Thanks for sharing!
