I like the lines, and especially the wall texture. But it seems like the main subject is too centered.

you don't see these anymore. As a kid i just wanted to put coins into these things and turn that key, the candy was just a secondary concern. I remember back in ukraine, i used to spend my dimes on those machines, the ones that gave you a hollow semi-translucent ball with lots of stuff in it. Seems like yesterday.

I would have liked to have kept this 3:2 and have the machine a little more to the left, however, there is no more wall right of frame to play with and I really wanted to keep the intersecting lines on the left. So cropping it 4:3 was the best solution I could come up with.

I would have cropped the left and centered it more. The shadow isn't really interesting, so leaving just part of it to balance the seam on the left would work for me. It could also be interesting to go back to it on a cloudy day and/or try some close-ups.
