Excellent lines and nice light on the subject. Love the old buildings. You must have taken these old steps with great care. Oh, what we won't do for the shot! V

Oh Chris, mind how you go!

type		22-Mar-2006 15:01
Great. It looks like it was shot with an ultra-wide angle. One feels that one foot placed gingerly on those steps will crumble the whole thing into a cloud of dust.

Guest		19-Mar-2006 00:00
one of my favs from your work, love this exposure, perfect.

Gilou Jeanneret		09-Mar-2006 07:09

So many comments and well deserved...what a great shot!

Chris P.		18-Feb-2006 21:21
Agree with all the others. Superb shot. The shadow at the bottom of the stairway completes the excellent composition and leads your eye right back into the photo. Well done!

WOW..what a nice picture here...

Ray :)		17-Dec-2005 22:00
Wow! I seemed to have missed this one, Chris. It looks as if it the old wooden steps have come out of some old ship. But you know that its the light that attracted me of course!! A few others seem to like this too... GMV.

Great shot Chris! The comp and light are awesome and what an interesting find! The stairs are still secret because nobody made it back up to tell anyone! ;^O

Steven Jusczyk		22-Nov-2005 09:05
They look like they hold a piece of history.

viljamix		22-Nov-2005 08:10

Adalberto Tiburzi		22-Nov-2005 05:25
Well seen, well done.

Karen Leaf		22-Nov-2005 02:55
Can't stop examining this. The light coming from the right and in front of the stairs create the most wonderful shadow and softness. Those steps look treacherous! Be careful Chris!

Guest		22-Nov-2005 02:36
Very compelling image!

Gayle P. Clement		22-Nov-2005 02:22
Wonderful light and composition.

Guest		22-Nov-2005 02:11

Reminds me of Lemony Snicket's for some reason - great shot Chris -

Gail Davison		21-Nov-2005 22:58
Beautiful... but if you are venturing down those stairs make sure you have good personal insurance hhehehe

J. Scott Coile		21-Nov-2005 22:52
WOW! Super composition and light! Sweet.

Guest		21-Nov-2005 22:39
wonderful light and mood in this chris.

Beverly Wickersham		21-Nov-2005 22:35
Nice picture. I don't think I want to slide down that bannister.

Gary Winters		21-Nov-2005 22:34
Wonderful image, and scary steps...

Mark Elert		21-Nov-2005 22:32
Nice character of the wood! But seems dangerous. The supporting planks in the railing does not give very much confidence. Looks more like the kind of stairs where you send down you very rich old uncle or aunt when you need their fortunes!

Sheena Woodhead		21-Nov-2005 22:25
Ooh, these look dangerous! Excellent composition and lighting.

laine82		21-Nov-2005 22:02
A very thought provoking image. The light is wonderful.

Josy's Pics		21-Nov-2005 21:58
