Nice composition with very interesting mix of colours. Good perspective and framing. The mountains in the background are very neat.
Well done!

Yes - very nice mountains - but the structure in the left foreground occupies a bit too much space than I feel it should. In absence of the structure, the flags in the center would make a nice splash of colour to the scene.
