Noticeably powerful in Thumbnail, this hasn't quite the same impact in this size: I think there are too amny other elements that mask the strong graphic of the stairs. I would guess that a more strongly defined sense of texture would bring out a heap more interest in this shot too - the sense of broken down concrete, and the dust and detritus, seem muted here. The composition is quite strong, though maybe just a bit obvious? I wonder if something more daring might have added effect?

Monochrome at its best. The very best has been made of the available light.

The stairway leads me trough the frame. Except for the highlight blowout in the window very good.

Nicely framed!

I love the composition, tones and subject. I am distracted by the blownout lights in the window. I know in basic editing there wasn't much you could do about that. Maybe taking it late in the afternoon or early in the AM? Still, one of the best ones in the competition!
