Thanks to Mike Williamson for his helpful critique of the original. Cropping to square takes out the busyness of the foreground and the distracting shadow in the upper left of the original. Whether it's a stronger composition is the question to me now. This is a replacement for the first try as I noticed a bit of a flaw and recropped a new image. Thanks to Mike for the critique and many thanks to Maria Hrabinska for an honest, non-anon rating of 3/3 on the previous attempt, very much appreciated. Any critique, comparative or not, would be appreciated. TIA

I really like the way the shadows look on the stairs--how the steps break the long, straight lines into a collection of short staggered lines. Great eye.

most creative use of shadow play !
