Negative space at Norah head

Carolina's challenge for today's Mono Monday was negative space.  Perhaps the lighthouse should have been on the left of this image to give more of a negative space,  really that was very thoughtless of the architect wasn't it.

Wiki says the following about Norah Head lighthouse:

The lighthouse was designed in a style similar to the style of James Barnet, by his successor Charles Assinder Harding, who also designed Cape Byron Light and Point Perpendicular Light.[5] It is the last to be designed in this style.[1]
Construction commenced in 1901, undertaken by day labour. Materials were brought by boat and unloaded on a wharf constructed at Cabbage Tree Harbour for that purpose.[2] It was officially lit on 15 November 1903, two years after Cape Byron Light.[2][6] The first keepers were N. H. Williams as chief keeper, with N. Hanson and S. Kells as assistant keepers.[6]
