Challenge: Negative Space (Classic Editing)
Camera: Olympus C-2100UZ
Location: Scranton, Pa
Date: Sep 13, 2002
Aperture: F4
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/500
Date Uploaded: Sep 13, 2002

This is an admittedly boring shot of a radio tower in downtown Scranton Pa but I think it meets the challange. A passerby told me there are only two towers of this kind in the US. The other one is in Cincinati, but I don't know what makes it so special.

The expanse of sky here really gives me a feeling of size and space. In that respect it's negative space and there is a good reason for there being so much of it. Despite that, the picture on it's own isn't that striking to me and so I am giving it a 5. I do think it makes a good use of negative space.

An interesting idea, which has many possible angles of philosophical exploration. But, the focus is a bit loose on the tower detail. 5.5 -> 6

Cool, I like the meaning you're trying to get across. good colors. 6

The blue sky on this is really nice. I think if you could have shown more detail on the tower by getting closer (though i realize it may not have been possible) would have made it more powerful. karmat

I did a double take on this one because I took a shot almost identical but did not submit it. What a beautiful sky. Nice shot!

you definetly have the challenge fulfilled, but the subject doesn't leave as much of a lasting impression as others to push it to the very top.

Good creative eye!! Well done. Score 7 Justine

This image contains plenty of negative space, but subjectively, it doesn't offer me much to look at and wonder about... - jmsetzler

Nice deep blue sky but not an interesting subject, unfortunately. Could you have taken the shot at a 45-degree angle to make it more visually appealing? By the way, are you in Saudi Arabia? This looks like the view from my lounge here in Riyadh.
