The crystals are a nice idea and background is nondistracting. DOF is a good way to differentiate the crystals. The reflection on the foreground crystal of what appears to be a window showing sky and trees distracts from seeing the similarities in them; perhaps some directed light on the foreground crystal would highlight the facets more like the background crystal. I might also experiment with positioning so the foreground crystal doesn't partially obscure the background one.

It would be nice if the front crystal was in focus.

Potentially strong subject material. The reflection of the window on the facet of the foreground crystal is a bit distracting though and I wish the foreground crystal was in sharper focus (maybe the background crystal should be the one out of focus).

Or not.... The foreground crystal just does not work in both composition or it's out of focus'ness.
