Auld Stair

[Rob MacKillop]

DP0Q. I might try this stairway again. Not sure I got the best angle.

 

[Dave Farnes]

Looks good to me. I wonder how many thousands of pairs of feet it took to wear down the stone steps....

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Good question. A lot.

 

[John Allen]

I like the composition. Maybe a different time of day or a day with different lighting?

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Good idea, John. Unfortunately, it is not too close to me, so I won't be back there often.

 

[Pete Askew]

Very, very nice, Rob and I especially like the way the shadows create that 'triangular' composition.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Pete. It's almost there, as a shot.

 

[Brian Moore]

It's a bonnie stair. Square crop maybe?

 

[Rob MacKillop]

There's an idea...

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

Excellent Rob. I'd have thought different times of the day would give many differing versions simply through the light available for future shots. I do like a elongated crop and can see the purpose of it here clearly. A fine image.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Julian. Who was that artist that painted a cathedral at different times of day? It's a good idea. I should bring some sandwiches and lashings of ginger beer, and spend the day taking photos of the same thing, same position. But I get bored easily...

 

[Pete Askew]

You could get an old blanket and a dog and you might even make a bit while there!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

I knew this photography lark would make me rich!

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

You could get an old blanket and a dog and you might even make a bit while there!

A dog? we all know Rob can conjure up a dog

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Somewhat doggedly too. Woof!

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

Can't say much more than already been said, so well done laddie!

 

[Aldous Lau]

Nice shot Rob
