Awesome job Tate. Congratulations on the finish. Not only do I not think the grain is "no problem" here, but I think it helps things. My favorite parts are the light streaming through the stairs on the left and the painted walls.

Liked reading your story about how the shot happened. It's interesting because my own entry was similar in that I knew it needed a human element. In my case I just asked a passerby for a few moments of their time. Gav this a 9, btw.

Voted much earlier coming back to comment. I keep coming back to look at the composition - it is one that speaks the most and (one of only two 10's that I gave out). I love how there are two meanings in this shot. One is the obvious of the three floors. It is the second meaning that leaves a lasting impression. Three people, three stories. One is just beginning his story by climbing to the top. One is traveling down down the stairs as he begins/ends his day. One is at the bottom and perhaps story end ready to exit the door. As I said this made a lasting impression that during the week I kept thinking back to the shot - going into my fav's.

Comment by De Sousa:
The idea behind the Posthumous Ribbon is to encourage you to break the rules, to find new and different ways to express yourself. To free your mind to think clearly toward the solution that is certain to come, to laugh at world and at life, not doing what others are expecting you to do, but just following and listening to what's in your heart. DPC it̢۪s a wonderful learning place where everyone should be supported on their way to be a photographer. A special attention should be aimed to those working hard with different views and approaches to photography, those not aligned with the mainstream taste and receiving no recognition. It̢۪s our responsibility to support these photographers creating diversity and expressing different visions. Being active at the Posthumous thread it̢۪s the best way to do it. Being active at the Posthumous thread it̢۪s the best way to protect your and the other̢۪s freedom of being different. Thanks for taking the time to enter this challenge. Stay wild.

I can sense four faceless people in this claustrophobic scene, as it is hard to ignore the photographer presence. (not voting)

a perfectly balanced photo with what looks like three strangers going about there lives in different directions, great composition, great theme, great photo.
