Steps to nowhere
* by Karthik
1st Place

Another shot, same idea. Camera was tilted to an angle where the steps are horizontaly aligned to the bottom. She was balancing herself by the ring and I tried to show as if she's standing straight.

Comments, critiques, welcome. Thanks, Karthik.

Such an outstanding composition, in a well-chosen location. The iron ring & graffiti are bonus elements. My only (very minor) suggestion is: I'd like to see all of her left hand.

A great twist on a twisted theme! You get bonus points for the isopic type composition (subject is to one side wiht loads of space) I also like the contrast between this and your previous submission. The mono treatment and toning is very good here.

I agree with all that has been mentioned! This is fantastic! Roberta

I love how you have to do a double take to notice that it is on an angle.

Oh Karthic! You've really got me smiling and nodding now!!! Terrrrriffic! I love it b/c you've got to sit and really look and figure out if this was taken on an angle or not! Whenever someone has to stop and really look at a photo like that, it's a very successful photo!!! Kudos!!!!! It excites me to see my challenge at work!!! ~ Lonnit
