I look at that image and immediately I want to climb the stairs and see what's up there, it looks inviting, doesn't look cold, stirs up the need to explore the next level.

Nice shot ........ Skippy (Australia)

thanks skippy, for looking and commenting-

For some reason I really like this picture. I think it has something to do with both the rail and the stairs being shiny. It makes them look a bit soft (not in the focus sense).

I agree that the subtle lighting gives the steps an inviting feeling.

Hi George,

Nice job on the lighting. I like how the leading lines provided by the rails draw you in. When I see this picture I immediately think of work at the office when the elevator is out.:D

I like it.... feel compelled to climb the stairs though I woulldn't call it inviting ... more like curiosity at whats going to jump out at you once you get to the top!!!!

Wow, I looked at this image for the first time and it had the WOW factor. I don't know what it is - it's simple, but the lighting is fabulous. GREAT GREAT GREAT image

Good use of light and shade to draw the eye into the picture.

Personally I wouldn't use "inviting" as a description. To me the dark areas almost make this look intimidating - you can't quite see enough to be sure of what awaits you...

Good work thumb
