The word 'golden' came into my head as soon as I saw this. Before I read the title!

Exceptional. The light angles and other
elements make this picture a golden chalice.

Oh no, not the ubiquitous hideous horizontal yellow tiles! Tiles like that cannot exist anywhere without being connected to "institutions" in my head :-(. Nice lighting, Motts :-).*** I'M HERE TO SAY: "Staircases", even..;-). Let me know where to get my hands on a "starcase". Might need one someday (kidding ;-)). Yes, I'm with ya on the WALLPAPER! :-) Yep, they do look flattened with all that rubble piled the way it is. Interesting.

Exactly like the stairwell in the junior high I went to many, many years ago! Institutional looking, for sure.

I always did love stairwell shots. I like being able to see the different layers of the building.

I fell down those stairs and just kept going,
sort of like Homer or Family Guy.

Wow Motts. I haven't seen your stuff in a while but I come back and see this! This is SUCH a beautiful shot!

Really great shot! I'll bet someone made a fortune selling these butt ugly tiles to every institution and prison in the country! I think we even saw them in some of the European hospitals Motts visited.

Those yellow tiles are horrible. I wonder when they started making them and when they stopped. Were they supposed to be attractive?

The way the light is reflecting off the handrail is absolutely breathtaking!
