 I know some will hammer this one for it's asymmetric component. I had some decent shot that were perfectly symmetric, but I just liked this one better. Perhaps because I thought the woman made it not totally symmetric. Enter what you like rather than trying to chase scores.

This is very good. It pulls you in, never to let you go. That focal point is a vortex. After you've been sucked in, you become part of the altered reality staring at the free world through the bars, like the actors in "The Truman Show". Thanks.

Even the signs on the wall match! That's fun. Nice find. I'll be even more impressed if the girl is a stranger to the photographer and you timed the ascent well rather than staging it. :-)

It's busy, but packs in tons of various and interesting symmetries. The fun is in searching them out. The woman ascending the staircase is the perfect asymmetrical finishing touch.

Too bad you couldn't get them to shift those rails about 2 inches left. ;)

Nice photo.
