Neat shot and there are plenty of right angles in there, but the skewed lines just get noisy for me. Still a nice shot.

Nice - full of all sorts of angles and sharp throughout, the clouds are pleasant as well.

I don't like the vignette.

There's a way to make this madness of cables and wires look great, but I'm not sure this is it. I wish I could tell you how I might improve it, but this is a tough one. I sort of feel like you're on the wrong side of the boats. We're looking at the shadow side rather than the side that's lit. Maybe that would help bring definition to the chaos?
