down the rabbit hole (return of the dark horse)

playing with light and chess pieces again... i bought one of those cardboard mailing tubes some time ago and was reminded of it yesterday when at the movies watching "Now you see me" - the bit when they want down the trash chute...

minimal editing done on this one... basic processing from RAW and then conversion to bw in nik silver efex with minimal tweaking...

(i think this may be better large on black)

tx all for the lovely responses on my subway shots...
