Without any photographer's comments on this, i can only offer my critique based on personal opinion alone, since I have no clue what you were trying to accomplish with this photo.
That being said, I think it's an interesting abstract. Someone suggested that it may be a cactus, but I don't see that. I see something metal here. Not sure what, but somethig metal.
The colors are neat, and the lines add something to the photo, but for me, it lacks something that really makes it pop. It's hard to give technical review on an abstract, but I see your focus is good, and the angle of the object isn't boring, but still lacking something for me. Overall, nice colors, focus and angle.

Edit to add that I saw your Alien Remnants photo and THAT one really stands out to me. I much prefer that one. I like the lines, the color and that one holds my interest much much more than this one does. More to look at, I think.
Is that a cactus...well it's a damn good abstract of one if it is. The challenge description stated no recognizable objects or something to that effect. There is also a halo edge at the top which I might have tried to clone out or reduce the radius abit in sharpening; however, I think it helps with the fins. the yellows blues and golds (a form of yellow) works well here. I saw some other blues and yellows in the challenge that can't stand in comparison. You chose...wisely! I think I would have tried to get more of the cactus which may or may not help! Good use of shapes, although this image would have trouble in comparison to other images in the challenge. Overall appeal of the image...Priceless! 10...at least that's the way I saw it.
