October 2nd

This is the top of an arch that's over an entrance to a campus. It seemed rather patriotic and appropriate with the debates for our upcoming election just starting. I took it yesterday and put it through photoshop today. I thought it looked striking with the black background.

It's just stunning and I think the black background really makes it stand out. It wouldn't have been as dramatic with sky behind, IMHO.
