1. HALLELUJAH. We can move on to green pastures after taking care of this

straggler of a theme.
I get to go shooting, I looked and can't find much I like.
Yours is what you held in abeyance for this occasion???
Love, love, love this exquisite staircase.

And now you can't enter it.

2. This theme should make for a fun and interesting contest.

7. For your sake, my friend, I hope this is your HOME...

said with the same intonation that "V" ( ...for Vendetta) used to introduce his home to "E-vy"

3. Too bad I can't post that anymore

as I already entered it in a contest here some time ago

4. Oh yes, I remember it well. It won second place, didn't it? Loved it then,

love it now!
I'm glad to see it again.

5. Yes, it won second place

you remember correctly.

It is one of my best pictures ever.

6. Ah, the staircase in...

the American Wing of the Met. Love that one.

8. It took me a long time

to get that shot. People kept getting in the way. ;-)

Didn't make it to the Met this visit but did go to the MOMA. Thought this was kind of a neat shot pf a staircase.

9. I did a shoot today. Found a mall that was nearly deserted.

Did a lot of handheld from a high vantage point. My favorite shot from today was from right before I went inside. I will post later.

I have climbed so many delightful stairs the past few years... but that was before I started taking pictures...

600 steps high to the top of the Amicalola Falls (beginning of the Appalachian trail)
