Steps

stairs.jpg

Canon 70-200 f/4 at 200mm, f/4.5. La Placita Village, Tucson, Arizona. I wish I had brought my tripod with me for this shot. The two-dimensional effect I was going for would have been more dramatic with a smaller aperture.

Nice, again. Very well seen. Can't you have pushed the ISO way up?

Oh, I don't know, I like the perspective. I think the way the staircase disappears is rather interesting.

Thanks Anand and Ianqui.

Anand, the scene was somewhat dim, and I don't think I could have pushed it further without running into noise issues. Maybe someday I will have an IS lens like Ianqui's and things like this will be less of an issue. :)

Yeah, and maybe someday I'll be 1/2 the photographer that you are and then everyone will be happy :)

I keep coming back to this one - foreground geometry is beautiful and the subtle depth still draws the eyes into the shot. Great choice of scene!
