A UNIQUE CAMERA ANGLE taken from the top floor to the basement on a stairway I walked for years. I chose this view for this theme for a couple reasons. First, the repeating patterns created with the railings and steps. Second, the Alfred Hitchcock look of spiraling down through the center of the triangle. Finally, the visual confusion of the composition makes the mind whirl trying to stitch the scene together. 

Thanks Lois for your inspirational shot of the staircase when visiting your government building this past winter!
