Description This past Thursday and Friday I went to the journalism conference in Little Rock for the second year... and I took several photographs, including this one. I was fascinated by these elevators, they were glass and chrome and went up 20 stories. I took a series of photos of them last year [link] so I tried again this year to do something a little different. I hope you like.

See the other shot in the series: [link]

+++ Made this black and white in PSP7. No other alterations.

Wow. I love this. I have a similar pic that I haven't posted yet of the same shot. Mine was in NYC though.


Nice capture.

This, in my humble opinion, is your best photo yet. Really suited to black and white. Great lines and tones. I really like it.

phenominal!
extremely good and clean capture.... I was instantly captivated
The lines just keep my eyes moving up and down and anyway keep them absolutely fixated to and mesmerized by the absolute stunningness of this photograph...
the hexagonal-ish elevator shapes contemplate perfectly with the multi-diagonal and vertical lines as well... it just looks so funky

stunning work you rock

I like how the two elevators play off each other alot, one comment would be to show more of the twenty stories that the elevators serviced. You mentioned it in your discription and I think it could really have added alot to the shot to show more deapth like that.

Very nice composition and angle. I see your pictures from last years to this year and I must say, nice improvement! The pictures last year were really nice, but the angles were a bit extreme, cutting out some detail in the floor levels.


This new series you did was very nicely composed, they are perfect shots! They do have a professional look to them. Looks like a really nice and interesting place to be.

Great shot. Looks like something out of a sci-fi movie. I love the subtle shades of grey visible on each floor level.

This is a very cute idea. The picture itself is sleek and stylish. Very good tones, great catches! Well done indeed. It has a rich, professional feel to it while at the same time reminding me of being a child always aware of elevator races in my mind, pressing all the buttons and loving vertigo.
