Steps, Stairs and Escalators

Beautifully balanced, one of the finest circular stairway in the many hundreds entered. This image swirls your attention perfectly, from the top left corner and bottom right corner, right into the centre of the image. Interesting marks on the surface too. A fantastic composition.

The two figures are perfectly poised at the top steps of this long staircase, making you want to know what they see at the top. The modernist windows and curving architecture, adds to the effect. Love the pastel colours, symmetry and balance.

Texture can really make an image, and that certainly makes this image stand out. A stepped pathway leading into a bamboo forest where you can't see round a bend in the path. With textured hedging too. Lines going everywhere. A Japanese work of art and beautifully captured.
