Description
Here we see the silhouetted legs and feet of a man who has just begun his descent of a curved stone staircase. The image both suggests a story - to be written by the viewer - and capitalizes on simple design elements in a way that is graphically pleasing.

Wonderful composition, Nikolyn. Your inclusion of the man's feet and legs at the top make it all the more special. f/l

Thank you, Ann. An accident when I took it but I knew immediately I had something and it's my favorite from this place :)
