About Lemme try to explain... The white lines are the edges of the hand rails of a staircase that goes up one way then more up the other way... Each wall is a different color... Hope that makes sense.

All excellent here but agree with some commenters; at least one or more people going down and up the stairs could dramatically increase the beauty of this shot

Katherine Hagen   {K:2359} 9/9/2003
Difference between some photographers and others. Some need to understand the image to enjoy it and some can enjoy it w/o having an explaination. Go to the Louvre...same problem. "so what is it?" I think it is very dramatic and even if it were a plain flat wall, the colors and lines are wonderful and striking. I could maybe imagine what I thought it was.....art stimulates imagination (sometimes). Great shot and wonderful attention to your environment. Bravo.

I've seen this shot a few times now and I always keep thinking its a flag for some country, I can see it as a staircase but it wants to be seen as a flag. Maybe in a past life...

Alan Mead   {K:2020} 6/19/2003
For me, the important thing abou tthis image is the fact that it was "seen" by th photgrapher. It could have been left without a title really, and in that case it would have remained 'abstract'; knowing what it is in reality is the only fautt. The photo is simply clean clear, exquisitely composed to perfection, and the colour just terrific.
If only I coud take shots like this one!

Shai Ritblatt   {K:3755} 2/23/2003
at the begining i thought some kid made a picture in paintbrush.
i think if you had taken a picture with a person going up it could have been more easy to understand and maybe even more powerfull.
anyways, good job.

paul durrant   {K:1047} 2/12/2003
well i have to agree with jason's comments. while it is undoubtedly a well executed shot, without the explanation and title, i doubt anyone would have realised what it was.
i'm not saying there's anything wrong with it. it just doesn't do it for me! would make for a nice party trick to confuse your friends though!!!

Handled beautifully as far as colour and composition are concerned....

Maybe its just me, but when a photographer has to explain a photograph in words for the sake of the viewer, it seems to deny photography it's essence as a language in it's own right. I don't like making suggestions but, a person walking up (or down) the staircase could have spoken to your viewers on your behalf....(just a thought)

Nice graphic quality to it.

I have simply never been attracted to abstract images like this. However, your explanation makes this one near imposssible to believe, and an amazing image to capture....perfectly. Reminds me of Kenneth's gold spiral case classic! Congratulations!
