 Yes, another "Stairway"... I wonder how many there are in the challenge? 10? 50? :)

It's my favorite subject again - it's just so conveniently located. I was hoping for a more dramatic sky, guess I shouldn't have waited will the last day. I also had a different composition in mind, but 18mm on a crop sensor wasn't wide enough to get both sky and stairs. So I had to go with this angle, which is OK, but slightly less interesting.

Great lighting and really works well in BW. Don't really care for the crop on the left edge going right through the arch.

Very nice B/W conversion, like the prespective and perfect exposure. Well done.

I can see how hard it is to try and capture stairway to heaven. I think you have done a good job considering how difficult it is. 9
