Thanks all for the very nice comments- I really appreciate it :)
Unfortunately I think many voters thought I colorized this image. Truth is, that glass really is orange and I did not add or pump saturation. The place is so orange that it is disorienting to be in there for any amount of time.
I'm the secret agent by the tree (multi exposure timer) and the other agent is a total stranger I thought I would mimic for effect ;)

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.
Positives: Gorgeous coloration and a really interesting scene. Although the figures take centre stage, I find that tree behind the glass the most compelling element. This silhouette presentation should look flat but you've managed to capture/represent the light in a way that maintains the depth of the scene. I love that texture on the foreground floor.
