Climbing Lights

Posted by dYe (Cambridge, United States) on 21 March 2007 in Transportation.

This is the entrance to my local grocery store. I prefer to take the stairs up, but most people tend to disagree with me. The way I see it, if I'm going to buy a bunch of food, maybe I should try to work some of it off first.

Great perspective dYe! Excellent clarity in tough light - very well done!

@Jerry: Thank you Jerry! The lighting of the orignal picture actually looked quite different. I messed around with curves to darken and saturate the picture, but the shot is still kind of grainy. I resized it to post it and smoothed it out some then which helped a little.

I agree with your sentiments, I would also take the stairs.
Good shot, especially the reflections on the different surfaces
