A stairway to.. Hell, a photo from Nordrhein-Westfalen, Ouest

Photographer's Note

A stairway down from Dom to an underway to the Koln's main railway station.
It looked to me as a stairway to hell.. U need to descend down a bilion stairs and thinkover your sins.
I decided to get back and have a beer instead ;-)

Hello Rafal,

I like your "Staircase to Hell." Like other circular staircases, as you look down from the top (or look up from the bottom), they appear as a logarithmic spiral. Your photo does not show such a graceful and smooth spiral, but certainly an efficient, streamlined and functional staircase. Many thanks for sharing this unusual view,
Greetings from Virginia, USA

Excellent perspective in this photo. The colours are beautiful and the decision to go back and have a beer was very, very wise. Good on you.

What a terrible staircase, thaat will make you dizzy if you ran down there fast. There is one like this in Covent gardens underground in London. That makes you sick when you race down it. Good shot of something unusual

What more to say ... the perspective, the coulor, the details (sharp, grafitti, lightning). The way to ... Everything adds to a great picture. Ingrid

Witaj Rafał!

O! Widzę, że u Ciebie sporo ciekawych fotografii. Zacznę od tej która zdobyła jak dotąd największe uznanie. Klimat mocno futurystyczny, kolorystyka jak z obrazow Dali. Jesteś na 100% pewien że to nie jest wnętrze Nostromo? Świetny klimat. Po takiej prezentacji chyba bałbym się zejść po schodach.

pozdrawiam
Jacek
