This photo was taken at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History. The exhibit is the Hall of Printing and Graphic Arts. I highly recommend a trip if you can make it to Washington D.C.
Shot taken with Nikon 45mm 2.8P

This one says it all, the nuts & bolts of the printing press. With about the right percentage of the image undiscernable, where the blacks aren't black and whites aren't white. A strong image.
Now that is a lovely photo. Good choice to do in a more monochromatic look, and I like the way the eyes can follow the gears, flowing down the picture. It's busy, but because it's all busy with the subject, it holds together and works nicely.
