Snowy Stairs

The stairs in the back of our condo are as mundane as could be. The Eye of the Beholder 2 challenge asks that we take something that is not beautiful and try to capture it in a way that is. While I don't think this fits 'beautiful' it was a good challenge to try to see something interesting in such a boring staircase. The snow -- while just an inch or so -- helped create a pattern looking down across two levels. Looks best in larger view.
The collage in my extras album shows the context for this shot.

Great pattern created with parallel lines going different directions, giving a sense of movement.

That's a nice clean abstract which stands out in thumbnail form, always a good sign. :-)

@kali66 @david68 @topcat @automaticslim @kimshots
Thanks all. @automaticslim I see what you mean by the thumbnail -- thanks! @topcat So interesting that you say that -- I pass this almost every day or see it out the window, but hadn't actually 'looked' til this challenge.

[Myrna O'Hara]

Great lines and angles. Well sighted, well captured.
