I was going up these steps, intent on hurrying out of the rain when I noticed the reflections. So I just had to take my little p&s Ricoh out of my pocket and take some shots. I'm sure I looked nuts.
Reading the comments I can't decide... I like the mixture of geometry and nature and yet I'm thinking about the more abstract version of this fantastic capture - just the rain drops, reflections and the mystical lines from the stairs. Anyway - I think the metallic color makes the magic in this shot.
Oh and it just started raining outside as I'm looking at this image :).
There's so much of interest here. I really like looking at this photo again and again. The little shapes in the top right corner slightly distract me, however.
Very cool! The leaf adds a touch of whimsy to complement the raindrop circles. A nice mix of organic & geometrical. And of course the reflections are great! Think how many people hurried over these stairs without seeing them.
