This revolving door (caught in motion) brings people into and out of the lobby where I work my day job. I'm sure this photo could be seen in a metaphorical light, perhaps even in a philosophical light. However, the truth of the photo is, I was very busy in an unphotogenic way today, and this was the only technically-interesting idea for a photograph I could execute in a timely fashion. (The stitched panoramic shot of the desk where I work, which is wide and curved, just didn't come out very well, despite multiple attempts at it.)
This is actually two photographs layered and blended. Both were shot with a tripod from precisely the same position. The first was an eight-second exposure of the door in motion, while the second was the door while stationary. I placed the stationary shot on top of the in-motion shot and reduced it's opacity to give an idea of what you were looking at, without losing the dynamic energy of the moving door.
