Again, as with your earlier posts, the saturation seems overly intense and the light too contrasty. The scene is good, but the technical aspects, IMO, need work.
Nice composition and subject matter. Tone down the saturation overall because it just tends to look overdone. I wouldn't mind seeing you pull up the shadows and trying a black and white conversion on this one.
I like the first picture better. As for the subject getting lost in the picture, I think that's true...but then...it IS a maze. Getting lost is the point
