Using the spiral staircase

Thankfully I only have to walk up 3 levels of the grand spiral staircase to reach my temporary office – the lift goes to the 6th level and then we walk. 

Looking down into the well of the staircase makes me giddy but produces some fabulous photos.  I used one of these for my Friday Photoart this week.

I used the Pixel Dust Photo Art Blue Moon texture as the background and Statement Frames as the top layer – with the hue changed to show green.  I added an artistic filter to each photo of the spiral.

I love the effect of the texture and how you have used the frames. Great work.

This is a cool composite and perfect text to go with it. Very clever. And it's actually slightly obscured as well.....not immediately apparent what I'm looking at. I like the use of the frames.

Gosh, wow, this is just gorgeous! A real little bit of Art! I think you should have it nicely printed, then frame it up for the wall at home!

So creative. The two spiral staircases - at first glance - almost look like owl's eyes to me! Love the message imbedded in the image. Thank you for sharing with PAF.
