The graininess and barely visible figure at the bottom of the steps works very well here. The tan areas are almost a frame around the black mysterious basement.

Nice concept but I think the shadowy figure could use a little more presence.

This pic just doesnt do it for me. I understand the concept but I feel would have been better if stairs more in focus.

don't know what to make of this, it's not very interesting but i'm really drawn to it. I think the noise adds to the mood of the picture as it's got a fine art feel to it.

every young childs fear - the dreaded basement. The noise works well for this image. I like that you only let us see a subtle hint of a person at the bottom of the stairs

The lighting and grain really work well here

This could be so great. To much noise and you don't see the child. Try it again- less light and longer exposure. Nice try.

not to be picky but i think a shot behind the kid looking down the stairs would have had a better effect.
