contrast is god =)

better if it's symmetrical, but I guess life isn't always fair enough to let you do that

Hey - yeah, I know what you mean. There were only so many places to stand without running into an old warbird:D. Thanks for the feedback. :camera:

I've really been obsessed with B&W lately. In fact I went the whole day with my camera set to B&W, it seems to puts me in different frame of mind and I approach scenes differently than when I shoot in color. Thanks so much for the comment Thorvold.

Try taking a stroll in the worlds largest hanger (worlds largest building for that matter) - Boeing..... talk about feeling very very very small! This is a really great pic, I love just the hint of light on the left that allows you to make out the shapes but the detail is lost... it makes you crave the ability to walk into the pic so that you can go and check it out and satisfy your curiosity! Good Job! :clap: :w00t:

I always enjoy your insightful comments. I was hoping viewers would actually see the planes off to the left. Also, some might think that the two HUGE doors are just 'dead' / wasted space, until you realise that they are...well BIG dark doors that dominate the picture:D.

You should send me some pics of that Boeing building, I would love to see it.

Thanks for the comment. :camera: :highfive:
