Harsh light. . .

Gregg, yes, the light is harsh; its yields an expressive image. These illuminated shadows are interesting constucts.

Thanks, I was hoping to make the image very elemental, as simple as possible.

Lovely!

What a nice photograph! The photo has clean lines and beautiful textures. The strong lines in the image reminds me of the abstract weavings of Josef and Annie Albers. I particularly like the way that the perspective makes the step sizes taper off logarithmically towards the top of frame. My architect father was a big fan of Bauhaus design and his design interest was stairways. We use stairs so often that we are blind to them in daily life but there are lots of images here in the pages of stairs -- moving and otherwise -- that remind us of the significance they have. My architect father was a big fan of Bauhaus design and his design interest was stairways and this image is one he will enjoy... You make me think of how often my retina gets this sort of information and how rare it is that I actually see it. Thanks!
