My house was built in the 1800's so it has a great old look to it. One day while I was in the basement I noticed the shadow effect on the stairs when I left one of the back lights on. I've wanted to take a picture of it ever since. For the shot, I have that same back light on, along with one speedlight on the wall under the stairs leaning against the floor joist (which is actually a wooden beam). I also asked my girlfriend to walk up the stairs to add a little more to the shot.
After processing this pictures I reshot the whole thing removing the shadow on the bottom right and moving the chair over to even out the picture...but I ended up using the original instead. I just liked the looks of that one more.
The entry was around 6.7 when I first looked at...then it sunk down to just under 6.2 around 40 votes.

You leveraged the shadows quite nicely, every little piece of the frame has something interesting to explore, allowing my own story to grow. Well done. 9
