There is no message in this photo. It's pure aesthetics.
To get such an image it's necessary to "see" and you "saw" it. Very nice.

love the bold colours in this shot, and the intricate patterns the stairs and their shadows create, it's pure pleasure to let the eye follow the lines. what was that word used in Barklay's adds? "ARTmosphere"? together with the slogan that "art is everywhere", right? your photo could be an illustration to that :) very well seen and presented, my compliments.
best,

Excellent composition, you managed well to avoid any disturbing detail. Stairs, all stairs and anything else than stairs and its shadow. Add the perfect sharpness and saturation... Great picture.

Wow, what a vibrant shot! The colours are really amazing, so bright and attention getting, and the strong patterns created by the stairs and the shadows is mesmerizing. You have a very good eye to be able to spot something like this and zero right in on it, with no distractions. Excellent work!

Wonderful shot! Strong colors, like hot chilli. It is difficult to understand where is the staircase, where is its shadow. Something like Escher's drawing.

Ola Goncalo, mas que espectaculo, ja estou a ver que tens tambem olho pra arte, conseguiste brincar e capturar perfeitamente o jogo de cores com o perfeito angulo da luz do dia e sair ileso com uma composicao que nos deixa de vontade em conhecer em pormenor o sitio onde retrataste esta foto, embora eu ja tenha estado no parque das nacoes nunca lhe olhei do ponto de vista artistico, realmente fiquei impressionado com esta, muito obrigado por nos mostrares mais um pouco de Lisboa e um feliz natal pra ti e teus familiares, ate mais, Joao Salas

Bonjour Goncalo,
comme je viens de critiquer pas mal de photos de paysages sous la neige, un petit saut dans une photo 'graphique', va un peu me changer les idées.
La succession des diagonales gauches et droites, assorties à des horizontales et quelques verticales sous ces couleurs donnent très bien.
J'aime ausi les ombres quirépètent le motif.
I wish you a happy new year.
Daniel.

AS escadas e as suas sombras em combinação com o laranja da parede resultam muito bem, criando um pelo painel, digno de ser impresso e colocado numa parede.
Um abraço.
