Stair Well

Uploaded: April 12, 2006

Description

We were in Key West. The sun was bright and casting dramatic shadows on this flight of stairs.

To me, the shadows are so dramatic that the subject is lost and just a graphic design remains.

Let me know what you think.

Melissa--

I like the subtle textures that go along with the light/shadow/contrasts. It's also an interesting example of DOF play. Great job as always! #2640701
