 VERY large display wheel in front of a performance automotive shop, bright in the early morning sunshine. Caught my eye driving by on the way to shoot my "metal" shot, and for once I actually turned around and went back to get the shot. I wish I had wiped down the hub a bit...the smudges are just a bit distracting. I like the impact, anyway.
