 A mass of mirrors inside of a car headlamp seemed to give a petal effect around the buld at the centre. Add some saturation, a touch of lightness & spin thru 90 ans, hey presto...the bulb flowers.

What attracts me here are the various sculpted light patterns created by the fan (?). Outside of 'Oh, this is a fan', I'm not sure what to think next. Perhaps a stronger point of view or mood lighting would help clarify your communication? If you are going for the abstract, then the shapes and lighting and colors have to be really special so that we can enjoy them for themselves; I don't think that quite happens here. I hope this helps! Keep shooting!

Photo's a bit small, so it's hard to make out the detail.

This is such a cool abstract. The color combinations, the overall tone and common level of focus, the weird patterns formed - all of them combine to make a very attractive and entertaining image.
