I have to use the same comments I have used for about 15 other photos in this theme:

I do not believe a wide crop is really using negative space as part of an image. I think negative space really should be used in composing the image, rather than just adding empty space without any need.

I absolutely love this one. The negative space around the fawcett is actually inspiring - although I'd be hard pressed to really put it in words, except that the space is made particularly attractive next to the normal, everyday fawcett. All high marks here.

Friggin' awesome mate!
