Lovely toning, @Philippe-Georges !
I'm not quite sure about the empty space at the top; maybe a tiny bit less would work better - or not?

Perhaps yes, this might be better:

Ah yes, I think it helps!
It's beautifully lit, well done.

Wonderful, was clipping the right edge intentional? It make the scene look much more extemporaneous but I think maybe it takes away from the contrast between the geometric and the round (or bouba and kiki if you know about that)

Yes, the crop on the right is intentional simply because it was an empty space. The left edge needed the points of the crystallographic models very close but not touching for a hint of visual tension. A large knot in the wooden sideboard links the disparate groups. Inorganic, organic; sharp, round ... bouba-kiki indeed!
