Sometimes, last-minute decisions turn into the best surprises!

Front on, New York hive 'the Vessel'Plenty of space for reflection. The Vessel, or the Hive. Hudson Yards, New York City.

You know that feeling when you decide to do something totally last minute, and somehow, it works out? Well, that just happened!

I haven’t entered the Australian Photography Magazine competition for months, but on a whim (and maybe a little late night confidence), I threw in a submission for the monthly March comp - theme "Lines, Shapes and Patterns" a couple hours before closing. And guess what? My photo made the short list! 🎉🎉

The shot is of The Vessel in New York - an insanely cool, honeycomb-looking structure that was once open for visitors to climb. Sadly, you can’t walk up it anymore, but on the day I took this photo, I, along with my daughter Storm, were a couple of the lucky ones who got to explore its maze-like staircases. Talk about perfect timing! 

Now, here’s where you come in! The competition is in the People’s Choice stage, which means I need your votes! 🗳️📸 If you’ve ever enjoyed my photos, if you love cool architecture, or if you just like clicking buttons (no judgment), I’d love your support!
