Spiraled

I was waiting for an appointment downtown, when I saw this fire escape on an old building.

They don't make 'em like that anymore, more is the pity.

Thanks for the kindness you showed towards my empty boat slips at the lake... the clouds in the sky were most excellent. :)

Thanks, too, for taking time to visit. Enjoy your weekend, all.

I love photos of fire escapes and this one is a magnificent example. Great shot. Perfect in b&w.

[Kathy]

This is a wonderful find and it looks so great in b&W.

[KWind]

Brilliant B&W!

[April]

I love the curves!

Great find

So well spotted, Rosie -- I think the spiral adds a lot -- great fire escape.

[Louis A. Sousa]

Weil done. I like the capture of the staircases very much.

[Jane Pittenger]

Almost like a ribbon

[gloria jones]

Cool shot, composition

[julia]

Fantastic.. and great in B&W

[Marnie]

Oh wow, that's gotta be a fav for me. Fab staircase, and a neon sign too. Bliss. I really like the way you've composed this shot to show the best of those wonderful stairs. I know several neon signs in Melbourne are now heritage-listed, even when the companies no longer exist, is this sign protected in any way?

[Barb Newcomb]

Great spiralling!

[Pea]

[Graeme Stevens]

[Graham Thresher]

A brilliant capture.

[Vera]

[Rachel]

What a great staircase! Excellent shot.

@golftragic Not that I could see... it just appeared to be part of the cityscape.

[Daryl O'Hare]

Oh, yes, yes, yes!!!! I LOVE.

Ooooh! There's something wonderfully ominous about this!

[Marnie]

@rosiekerr Oh dear, neon tech is now so old-hat that most of it has been, or is to be ripped down. Hope someone's on the ball in your city, both the stairs and the sign look pretty significant to me.

[Trisha Ford]

Another Fav! This one stopped me in my tracks! Gorgeous!!! Where did you find these stairs?

[Dyan Stevens]

This is a fantastic photo! Love the verticalness (my made up word for the day) and the lines.

[Nick]

This is great - it really caught my eye on the Curated page.

[Rosie Kerr]

@trishaford St. Louis... down in the city. A very invigorating environment. :)

[Rosie Kerr]

@nickspicsnz So glad that you enjoyed it. I was happy to see it, too. Thanks for taking time to comment. Much appreciated.

[Bill Fenske]

fantastic pov

[Ukandie!]

How did I miss this, love the strong lines and structure!

This is well seen & the signs to the side add an air of grittiness; that downtown feeling.
