FABULOUS image, Peter! The subject is fascinating, and the detail and value tones are superb. But your POV makes it a REAL standout, as it's an unusual angle, not directly facing the staircase. Love this--and I KNOW I'll be back to congratulate you when the finalists/winners are announced! :) #6165797
