I like how the tent (?) on the left also points up, so that there's more than one explanation for the title. Fab processing.

[Mara]

Eery, disquieting....different stories come to mind (many references to classic B&W movies), Well, the shot has successfully accomplished its task: suggesting, making you think / interpret, capture the message/s...
I like the subtle line of light which marks the steps.

[Ruth Moucharafieh]

Superb!
