For a bunch of plastic chairs, this is quite a beautiful shot. I love the colors. In the background, the chairs almost look like the scales to an exotic, sea green dragon.

@dYe: wow... i didn't see the dragon before, but you're right!

Rhythm, asymmetry within symmetry, and tones of similar color - this one has it all!

Very creative composition and framing! The green is stunning.

@Sujit Sudhi: this stadium (and the whole olympic park around it) provides a lot of unusual subjects... so there's more to come. i can really recommend going there with a camera, one day when you're 'around the block'. ;-)

Great composition... One can get lost on the green and it is not even a forest... Extraordinary made!

@juant3: that's the feeling i had... a forest which ain't a forest. this is only a small extract of the huge field of chairs inside the arena, and they're all green. the day we were there it was almost empty. like a spooky forest.
