unless you phone the psychic network hahaha... i really like how the stairs look so huge and the person walking them so small, i wonder what institution she's walking into :) great shot!!

She is perhaps pondering her path...these steps seem serious and monumental.
Interesting angle of view...lovely gritty black and white.
6 May 2010 5:24am
such beautiful and impressive, brilliant very brilliant shot
6 May 2010 5:40am
I like the tone here, and the 'something is not quite right' look of the lady going up a different set of steps.
6 May 2010 5:56am
A stunning composition...the light is absolutely 'perfect' and your processing superlative!
6 May 2010 6:08am

I love all of the textures--and the angle and composition make this shot adds so much interest.

Fabulous shot of something so ordinary that most people would probably never notice it. The choice of B&W is also genius. Bravo!
6 May 2010 2:10pm
Very strong use of line and contrast. I like the placement of the human subject, too!

6 May 2010 7:40pm

6 May 2010 8:04pm
nice! excellent lines.. all leading up to the subject. this is brilliant.
6 May 2010 9:32pm
The foot hiting the angle between 2 steps at the best timing ! Terrific compo with the human pushed at the extreme corner (and triangle) of the image. Step by step, slowly but surely, looking forward. Love this photo a lot*
6 May 2010 10:36pm
YESSSS!! Excellent détails, angle and compo!! Great work on light. 5 stars for sure!!
6 May 2010 10:38pm
Great composition. The use of leading lines is excellent. The contrast is perfect, too.
7 May 2010 12:22am
I love this shot. Super processing.
7 May 2010 12:28am
A great composition. The point of view gives an impression of stress on the human figure. Was it your goal?
7 May 2010 6:03am
excellent tones, textures ..... you should a great angle to do this ... may have to copy it ... !
7 May 2010 11:49am
Very well composed. All the leading lines are great, and the head-down position of the backpacker give the feeling that he has a hard climb before him.
7 May 2010 12:04pm
An excellent composition. Like the point of view on the ground level and the place you give to the stairs. Great graphism also.
7 May 2010 1:03pm
for a street candid, you've framed this one really well.. excellent shot! :D
8 May 2010 1:26am
love the angle you got on this.
a real solitary feeling.
8 May 2010 4:53am
Excellent composition.
I think DOF could be more. Using F8 was better.
8 May 2010 5:55am
excelente composición, la prespectiva de los escalones de lujo!!
8 May 2010 4:38pm
wonderful shot. What a perspective! Very nice processing too
8 May 2010 10:56pm
really lovely how the light is falling on her raised leg and on the stairs - creates such a feeling of sympathy between the woman and the never-ending climb.
9 May 2010 2:53am
Fantastic capture! Really love the composition and the angle!
9 May 2010 12:36pm
Wow, love these two layers of stairs with so beautiful textures. Perfect timing with her, climbing up head down. The massive stairs of the foreground seems about to compress her but the other one allows her to go on her way. A gorgeous framing !!
9 May 2010 9:36pm
Love your point-of-view..the mood you've captured/created here.
10 May 2010 12:22am
Excellent shot, really like the lines leading into the edge of the frame. Impressive composition as always, love the tones, textures and contrasts. Stunning work!
10 May 2010 2:13am
Love the angle and shot direction!
11 May 2010 11:44am
Good from a filming perspective.
11 May 2010 11:45am
I love the low PoV and perspective, a very good composition. Furthermore the use of B&W really adds depth and atmosphere to the scene, drawing you in to the image. Well done.
11 May 2010 6:04pm
Def. wonderful framing. Its great to get down low and get a different look and feel.
11 May 2010 6:58pm
above everything great in this image your composition is sublime
