Well, Pini, you've got me here. Two chairs with nice rattan seats and some strange ornament hanging in a window making a reflection. Not sure why. Color pallette very flat, not sure what's attractive about that....

Hi Emily,
Yes, the tone looks flat (not the color palette as it is b&w ) but it is not.

looks blueish to me!

If you look at the left side you can see pure white in the plant reflection (what you called ornament) and black on the picture border.
But  it looks flat because most of the centre area is low contrast grey.
We usually like more contrasty pictures but I tried to see how people react to low contrast but maybe interesting composition.

Well, I suspect you've found out!

I also curious about people's reaction to Renate image if they wouldn't see his explanations.

Might be a typo, but I assume Renata is a she!

That is the reason I didn't gave you a clue about what is there.
Actually there are two glasses there, one horizontal - table and the other vertical - door. The light that came through the door reflected from the glass table and reduced the contrast.

Yes. These things happen, but I'm still not sure they are inherently interesting to me.
