 Somewhere in a galaxy, far,far away or... Sky Tower in Auckland.

Shot using B&W function on my camera. A little USM to try to sharpen it up. I was hoping to capture the stars in the sky as well but the city lights were far to bright & just eliminated them. It wasn't actually supposed to be a purely black background But i am still happy with the result.

I know its much larger probably but at first glance this looks like a car wheel or hubcap. You do have neg space the way I see it but it may have been more interesting with color imo.

Take me to the mothership! Great B&W and excellent abstract crop. Looks like the underside of the Sky Tower here in Auckland. But then again, all those needles must look the same from this angle.

The negative space in this image really does make you pay attention to the subject. Nice shot, cool idea.
