I really like this photo... eye grabbing... you Rick perhaps see what others do not see... that separates amatures from the eternal.

This photo is not of our modern era... it is a classic Art Deco... an excellent example. "The main characteristics of Art Deco architecture are its sleek, linear, often rectangular geometric forms arranged and maybe broken up by curved ornamental elements."

This photo is sticking ... high impact... well done. How would I change it:
1 make sure the vertical central line is truly 90*

2 Do another with black at the top is equal left and right .. the bottom black appears to be. That top/bottom unequal appearance may be why I mentioned checking 90* in comment 1

3 Do an alternative with the base of the building snug to the right border so there is a competition of negative space dark with the white.

Rick, I very much enjoyed your article. As in industrial engineer, I would point out that the use of photography in industrial settings was not so much the purview of industrial relations as it was of industrial engineering. Frederick W. Taylor and Frank and Lillian Gilbreth were pioneers in that field. Early IE's broke motions down into 18 elements called Therbligs, which was, of course, the name Gilbreth, spelled backwards, more or less.

By the way, for those who may be interested, the lives of the Gilbreths were portrayed in two Hollywood movies, Cheaper by the Dozen(1950), and the subsequent sequel, Belles on Their Toes(1952) .
