Default Pattern or geometry

Geometry

Hi. I took this picture of the interior of the hotel looking up the ceiling and hanging by the rails. Is this interesting enough? I got caught in the beautiful pattern of the spiraling rails of each of the floors of the hotel. I tweaked the color a little using Picasa and made the colors warmer.
Gear: Canon EOS 500D
No flash
Focal Length: 20mm
Exposure Time: 1/25
Aperture: 3.63
F-stop" 1/3.5

Could I have made this more interesting and how?

Like the lines and the colors. The bright light at the top ruins it tho. I'd crop it out

You dont always have to crop in a specific size. Perhaps a square?
