Arahne, this is a strong b&w conversion. The details and contrasts are lovely. Along with the primary theme, I like all the intricate staircases leading to and from openings throughout the image. -Michael Puff

Arahne, I like your perspective & the way the components align here...it really draws attention the the unusual coffin and the steps to "above". My eyes wander all over this photo, exploring other openings here too. Neat shot. MFC

I really like this - it looks so abandoned - even the dead got up and left.

Very nicely composed -- really like the background, and a good idea. Helen

My idea was about the instructions mentioned in every civilization (Book of Dead-Egypt- for example) which tell the Deaceased where and how to go after death. Our guy ran in hurry (that is why the coffin has that hole) :).

Arahne.. Very interesting photo... ! I am drawn to the white sky and even whiter coffin effectively the focal point~ so many paths outwards& upwards~ladders,stairs& openings emanating from it.. Excellent find/ challenge perfect. irish_eye

Very dramatic opening, has meaning on many levels. I really like the somber tone you have created by decolorizing the image. Well done. Bockshufler
