Didn't have much time for this challenge since I left for vacation on Tues morning. I wish I had time to try out some other ideas. This is a look down a shaft in an apartment building.
Contrast was helped by levels adjustments. It's not perfecly centered, but that's because when I did center it, it looked more uneven. Something to do with differences in the windows, I think. I see it as having 2 negative "spaces," the white outside and the black inside.
No "Shaft" jokes, please. ;)

I really like this. You sort of have the two negative space spaces going here on, joined together by the walls which have great texture. One of my 2 10s for the week. 10 - chrisab.
NIICE -- plenty of artsy fartsy here to go around. Good shot, and good use of negative space as the subject of the shot, rather than the other way around. Is that possible? I dunno, but I like this shot. Well done ... -9
Cool artistic impression. As in many of this weeks photo's the negative space is merely supposed to support the subject, rather than BE the subject. Still, it is probably 8-worthy.
There is so much mystery in this image! What is at the bottom of the shaft? Is this a negative image? How did you do this? Inquiring minds want to know!
Very stricking ! The problem I have is determining what the subject is so I can determone what the negative space is. I'm having a hard time with this NS challenge so don't worry take my comment at hart. 6. marcvg
Wow, where did you find this shot? This is something I would have on my wall, fo sho! It seems the "negative space" here IS the focal point. But what do I know? heh - bamaster (8)
This photo does nothing for my vertigo! I can't look at it while I type this or I might pass out so if you see a lot of typing errors it's because I couldn't watch while I typed. SUper!!! 10!
Interesting choice of subject and a well composed picture. I like how the negative spaces surround the subject. Good use of contrast to accentuate the mood of the picture. Makes me feel like I'm entering 5 portals. - labrynthe
Zzzooom wonderful perspective and meets the challenge well. Good work the b&w really adds to this shot. I have to type quickly as I feel like I'm falling!!!! >g< Score 7 Justine
Now this an excellent photo because it has atmosphere and it evokes curiosity... 'Where is this place? What does the darkness lead to? etc.' I like the contrast between the over exposed whiteness of the walls and the darkness. Also, good use of neg. space. Excellent work!
