Was taking a picture of this for the 'dramatic' perspective kinda thing that's going on with the banister. I was kind of annoyed when people walked into my shot but it turned out very nice.
It's quite fitting that the people look like ghosts cause it's in an old jail where many people died.
Editing: None. Straight from camera.
Anticipated criticisms: * Staircase on the top left corner. Didn't notice it in my viewfinder, alas.
- I think I'd leave it in there for this shot even if this was in advanced editing. It fits thirds on the bottom of the staircase nicely.
* It's a little over bright
- Didn't want to edit anything in case I inadvertently broke the rules.
Conclusions: Minimal editing sucks!

It might be a wee bit oversaturated. But doesn't that just add to the 'over' theme? I think that was the first time I softened an image. I normally like details, but figured soft was more fitting to the ghostly theme.

Oh, this is really nice. The motion blur really makes this shot, as does the interesting pov. It would be nice to see a version with a bit more contrast, not for this challenge of course. Well seen and captured.
