Love all the lines, patterns, textures. There's only one person (sort of) but the eye just can't stop moving.

agree with the above...lots of stuff going on and so much to take in. did you use any movements with this shot? and, if so or if not, where was your plane of focus? the image looks sharp from corner to corner, but i'm wondering if that is a result of the f-stop or a combination of that and any movements? cheers! and congratulations on surviving the polar vortex!

Interesting tonality, it all seems to work well. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent detail and sharpness throughout the entire image. The only things out of focus are the flags whipping in the wind as they would be.......very nice work!

Yes I did use some movements. I shifted the lens slightly left because I wanted to keep the camera axis orthogonal to the stairs while catching the flags. I also dropped the lens. It did cause some vignetting on the lower right corner of the frame. I had to burn down that corner to hide that. Finally I tilted the lens forward ever so slightly. And of course I used f45 on a 75 mm lens.

Very nice composition. Balanced and nice rhythm.
