Stage entrance of Phoenix Symphony. I didn't have a lot of time, so I fired off two shots of this excellent composition of red stairs, white walls, checkered floor and the door.
I layered the two shots - taken from slightly different angles - over each other with the top layer in darken only mode. Then I iced it with the filmstrip layer (without the filmstrip thingy) also in darken only mode.
Ever so odd and quirky, and quite delightful. I enjoyed the view for quite awhile before reading your explanation. That checkerboard floor is to die for from a photographer's perspective, is it not? A nifty combo shot!
