Challenge: Zen Photography III (Advanced Editing VII*)
Camera: Nikon D200
Lens: Tokina AF 12-24mm f/4.0 AT-X Pro DX
Location: Oslo
Date: Apr 18, 2010
Aperture: f/4
ISO: 400
Shutter: 1/15
Date Uploaded: Apr 20, 2010

 A little unnecessary and largely self defeating title explanation:
There's glass around the stairs, there's glass in the risers between the treads (ok, plexi-glass), there's glass in the window seen through the glass around the stairs and also in the borrowed light to the left of picture, the window reflected in the mirror seen through the borrowed light and even glass in the mirror.
So there's lots of glass.
Then there's this somewhat seminal work from the beat era, called Zen Flesh, Zen Bones, to which I thought I could allude.
And people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
Humble apologies for my obscurity.

The cat and the stairs are fine but the left side of the image spoils it for me.
