'Cityscape or Escape'

A very strong contrast achieved by the strong afternoon sun is creating deep shadows. Combined with the linear perspective, they pull out quite a bit of drama out of this photograph. The colours are scarce, everything appears to be somewhat colourless, except for the beautiful but dramatic blue sky made of various tonalities of blue and cyan.

The wide stairs lead to the fairytale-ish sky as if offering an escape from the unnatural concrete surroundings of a city, made of subdued colours. However, the escape is denied by the tall skyscraper in the background, right at the end of the stairs. Stairway to heaven? Nope, buddy...

The composition is well thought of and very balanced elements-wise. The big dark shadow does a lot of storytelling. A little bit of green on the posts in the background try to match the sky but it is just not enough. But, when combined with the greenish foreground in front of stairs and the balconies in the distance, the greens gain a significant, yet subliminal role.

So, do you run up this stairs to reach the sky or stay in the shadows of mundane effort?

Enjoy! :)
