Description
When I was in Crescent City** the other day, I took a little drive down to the beach. When I got there, I found the access was down this spiral staircase. It was a very different way to get to the beach, so of course, I had to take a few shots!!

I use to know a man that went to Mexico with me and my Mexican friend put him in touch with a welder.he was wanting on of these stairs for his house.he hauled them from Monterrey all the way to Dallas on a Pinto no less tied to the roof very interesting capture
Spiral stairs are usually in fascinating places. Where I went to college I lived in a building that was built like an old fortress...four staircases...all spiral. The CC link didn't work for me(?).
Cool POV and capture; I had a set of these in a place I lived in once. They were more challenging to use than I anticipated, though. Hard when you needed to carry a anything large up or down, but oddly easy to use when drunk--you just needed to lean to the center support and follow it up!
LOL at Denise! A very interesting image....nowadays my first thought about access is wheelchairs, having afriend who is stuck in hers!
Just got back from a night shooting with Dave aka punaguy. And one of his shoots was on a spiral stairs. You must be sending back messages here, lol. Nice capture. Aloha
very nice!
cool shot my friend x
Oh Marilyn - this is magnificent! I love the POV and the shadows just add to the symetry of the image! Great work girl!!!! LOL @ Denise!!!! :)
LIke the POV and the coloring is a great touch...
Good observation. Exellent shot.
Fabulous shot. I can "see" people upstairs/downstairs...Because the dakkness on.I´ve one like that in a garden near my house...
Hey up :o)..This is one cool pic Maz Mick
Great pov and play on light and shadow... nicely captured!
wonderful shot
I have to say, Marilyn, you're really onto something here. I love the geometry of this. It's like looking at a seashell of some undiscovered sort, or like the segmented armor of an armadillo-sort of critter. The rusty reds are perfectly captured, and the shadow of the railing adds a little bit of an extra pop. The textures are good too...it's standard, non-slip traction metal, but it looks more organic and alive. This is incredibly well-seen and captured and presented. I think Denise and I have the same experience in terms of having to walk up stairs like this when drunk...the "follow-the-central-support" strategy works every time.
I really like the shapes in this one. The shadows from the railing. The rusty step. The contrast with the green below. Dana
I LOVE this! The perfect You-are-There shot and so real that it almost gives me vertigo. The lighting and texture are excellent and I can practically smell the sun-hot oxidized metal.As with Chip and Denise I've had my share of walking up spirals while intoxicated (one of my closest friends has a multi-floored spiral that is essentially a roller coaster) and as much fun as they are going up, they're twice as fun going down! Anyway, this is a great shot and will probably inspire several nightmares. A definite fave!
Ooooh, I love spiral staircases! With this POV, you've captured the fan, lighting, shadow and textural effects gloriously, Maz!
You already know how much I love this. It's absolutely perfect! Straight to my favorites it goes.
