Curiosity about the title drove me to view this image.
Technically an excellent image but it is much more than that!
Wonderful mix of the seemingly mundane, a somwhat abstract take, and the B&W treatment turn this into a potential portfolio image!
I almost forgot: the square perspective is a masterstroke.

As Slobodan said: Congratulations!

I like how the little Onions lay beneath the surface for lurking eyes.

Thanks for the compliments everyone. I'm finding that photography is like a lot like playing a musical instrument; producing something technically sound is one thing, creating something note worthy is very hard. Thanks again.

Instead of the rule of thirds, you've nicely accomplished the 1/5, 1/5, 3/5 rule of fifths.

It's a good thing our numbering system is versatile enough so that we can make up a new rule to fit any excellent composition.  ;)

Minimalistic at first glance, but rich with texture and interest.  Perfectly executed.
