My office staircase again. This is the last angle from a year ago that I've been waiting to enter in a challenge. I doubt it'll do as well as the last one, but maybe it'll break 6.
Here's the one from last year. I rotated this one compared to that and edited it better.

Post-challenge: Yippee! Now that this staircase is my top and 4th-best score, and most of the commenters recognized it this time around, it's time to shoot something else. Of course, the new shadows challenge has potential for reshooting this:

Other people shoot that big rock out in California, or the northern lights in Iceland, and you shoot your staircase. It works. You have done some wonderful compositions with it, and while similar, they aren't the same. Keep it up.
Jeffrey, I have to admit this is a great shot. It shows very, very well. I'm going to skip voting, 'cause I can't be unbiased, but I'd probably give you a 9 if I did. I suspect you'll get enough to make up for mine :-) Good luck and hope this one makes top 10.
I assume this is yours, Jeff (unless someone is stalking you at work). Looks like this staircase works well for you! My only complaint is that I've seen it several times before. Don't get me wrong, if I ever find a subject that consistently scores well I'll keep using it too!
I think I recognise this - a fabulous staircase, Levy? Either way, fits the theme spot on, and photographed with considerable skill. I love the way the composition sucks the viewer in, as though in to a vortex.
