Spiral Stairs
I took this photo from the top of the steps at the Point Loma lighthouse in San Diego. It was near closing time and the one of the National Park Rangers let me go up right before they locked up for the night. Being the only one in the lighthouse made this shot much easier.
I have always found the design of spiral stairs to be interesting and this set reminded me of a human eye. While I normally don't like centering the subject within the frame, I felt it was neccessary here to emphasize the spiraling effect of the stairs.

love this composition
That is really cool! Very nice photo. I think it might even look better in B&W with some good contrast to really emphasize the graphic qualities. This could become one of my favorites!
You certainly did create the spiraling effect with this shot...quite dizzying.
