Stairs and Stripes

Stairs and Stripes

One of my hopes for this space is to have a place to introduce and get feedback on new images. Please feel free to chime in by clicking the comments link.

This image is from a day spent in Assisi, Italy this past February. After days of hurried travels, strolling around St. Francis’ hometown filled me with a calming peace and provided a good day of photography. Assisi is a fascinating city of stairs and alleys. I like the rhythm of the repeating lines and grids as well as the soothing tone of the pinkish bricks.

    Well, Andy, I love all your work, of course! This one, “Stairs & Stripes, I find equally appealing and interesting. The wall at the right horizon line has a surreal element to it, almost flat at times, but at other times an optical trick to the eye. I like the balance of the stair spindles on the upper left as a complement to the bottom stairs & wall. Keep up the artistic eye!

    Thank you for the encouragement! If an image doesn’t click for you, I’d like to hear that as well. I’ll try to keep a thick skin.
