Looks good. Only the underground is a bit out of sync. I think a reflective black underground would look better. And as this is advanced editing you could have cloned out the particles on the underground.
Love the range of tones in the colors caused by the diagonal to your light source. That and the interesting way the subject interfaces with it's background/foreground.
The bottom right of the yellow box, is just a bit hot for my tastes, but that's just a nit pick. I like it.
slightly more light on the left and not cutting off the right side would have made this stronger IMHO ... love the pattern and colors though ... neat idea ...
