Coming upstairs just now from my department meeting, I really liked the patterns of shadow and light on the staircase. Took a few quick pictures, natch 🙂

As I walked up the stairs . . .

Near the top step at the second floor landing . . .

On the second-floor landing, looking down . . .
I think I like the photo in the middle best, mostly because in the absence of carpet and railings to orient you, it’s easier to lose track of what this actually is and take in the image as an abstraction more “form” than content. Anyway, I like it!

I love the black and white patterns! Amazing!

Actually, I just remembered you said “black and white.” You know what, that was just plain old color. Something about the angle and the light made it look black and white instead of the greenish color the steps actually are. I’m going to try using some of the the black-and-white filters to see how it looks with those changes.
