Steps and Stairs with People

The strength of this photo is undoubtedly how the photographer was able to frame the staircase, avoiding putting in the image parts that would have diminished the visual impact of the geometries, but also avoiding cutting too much parts of the staircase itself. The result is this interesting intertwining of diagonal lines, which almost seems to suggest, as shapes, a series of roofs seen in perspective. The presence of the photographer himself in the image serves to enrich it, and also gives it a sense of humanity, and not just geometries.

What an extraordinary and hypnotic image that is this! The eye seems to get lost in the shapes of the floor, but then at a certain point it finds the staircase, announced by the change of shape and color. Stair on which a young lady is quietly lying, holding a red umbrella open, the most colorful element of the image.

Excellent this photo, dominated by a staircase that literally cuts it in two. I find that the blur of the two people, an adult and a child, deliberately avoids directing the viewer's gaze on them, making them manage to concentrate on the whole, made of a clear and not excessively bright tone, in which the many colored books, however, stand out nicely.

A minimal photo that takes up a staircase in Rome. A young man is sitting, probably waiting, and is using his smartphone. The wall of the building, with large patches where the humidity has taken over the color, and the stairs with the marble steps now become dark, create a setting from a place in decline, which has its own charm, also due to the skill of the photographer and how he managed to present the colors.
