Stairs to the Top I like the idea of where stairs can takes you, or where they are coming from. Sometimes I sit and watch people come and go, just to see how different we all are.

Shadow on the Stairs These stairs are how you get from floor to floor in a parking structure, and while I have made them look very creepy, they are very public, well lit, and not at all scary.
