weekly photo challenge: descent
Sorting through our photos, we realise we take more photos going up then down. But we managed to locate one of a descent from our trip to New York a few years back for the weekly photo challenge.
Β Snapped just before we descend some stairs in New York City Public Library. Photograph in black and white for a Halloween mood π
Wishing you all a fantastic weekend!
We welcome your comments.

That looks down to me! I’ll buy descent. Nice B&W rendition BTW. βCurt

Thanks Curt… we struggled with this one. We have MORE ascent photos π

I do too, but I found Santorini to have excellent descent shot opportunities because you are normally looking down stairs toward the sea. You simply have to go there, if you haven’t been. π βCurt

Very good point π We have been to Santorini and didn’t even think of it that way! You are making us want to revisit some of our photos from that trip now.

Amazing and a little spooky in B/W

It is, huh? Amazing how taking away a bit of colour adds such a different atmosphere!

A perfect image for Halloween weekend! I love the contrast of the light above the bust and the different shades of the two rails. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you!! π We actually had missed the contrasting rails… so a very great observation from you! Hope you had a lovely weekend!

Imagine… the descent with candle in hand… flickering from the drafty staircase…
November 2, 2014 at 4:58 pm
Oooh… yes, adding that imagery adds to the “goose bump” factor!! π

So true, your comment about up vs down. I think your choice of B&W for this is spot on.

Thanks Ken! B&W makes such a huge difference to the mood of the photo π
