Winding Staircase Photo

Photographer’s Note

Standing at grondlevel looking upwards you'll see these 228 steps leading you to the top of the lighthouse of Lyngvig.
The lighthouse was built in 1906 and is the last lighthouse built along the westcoast of Jylland.
The lighthouse is 38 m tall placed on a 17 m tall sand dune, so if you climb all these steps you'll end up more than 50 m above sea level giving an impressive view of the western coastline.

Take a look from top of the stairs too.

Dear Jan,
Very nice perspective on this shot!
Colors are also very attractive!
I would have try to avoid the electric cables.
Thanks for sharing,

Hi Jan

A great POV, and DOF. I like the optical illusion, is it stairs going up, or a slide going down? Well spoted and thanks for sharing.

Hello Jan,
beautifully done. excellent view here captured very well.The colors are really attractive too. The symmetric curves are an excellent formation like they are found inside sea shells.

Hi Jan,

This is one of those image illussions. Nice POV and you may want to pumped up the saturation. TFS!

Un grand classique l'escalier en colimaçon...mais que c'est beau; beaucoup de soin dans la composition; belles couleur; un vrai vortex qui vous entraine vers l'oeil du cyclone...

Excellent picture, Jan, you have chosen a perfect POV to make this "snail" impression. The shot is sucking the viewer in. Superb. Got one similar in my portfolio, from Austria.

Cheers
