Thank you for your participation. Staircases is a main feature of most residential building and it is right to show it in its context. However I mostly was intrigue of those that had the staircase as they sole focus and played around with the shapes and forms of it and close proximities. I also liked those that include various lightings with the inclusions of shadows or even objects and other. I was drawn very much to this composition due its white marble, quite elegant, minimalist but not without character. The residence cannot be seen but it is referred to perhaps by the shadows. I think there is a bit of mystery or unknown that the observer is free to reconstruct or not when in front of this composition. Not revealing all allows us to raise questions about the narrative and perhaps in order to build the missing narrative, use our imagination to do so.

Recently I rediscovered a beauty in staircases leading to residential properties, so in this contest I would like your photos to focus on external entrance staircases leading to residential properties. A minimum of three steps must be shown and small ornamental items can be included also. These small external staircases offer a good opportunity to use their geometry and shadows to play with the concept of abstraction and minimalism. There are no restrictions in the type of architecture or design of the steps but the staircase must lead to a residential property. Photos may be taken from the inside looking out, but the inside should be minimal in the composition. I am looking forward to seeing your creations.
