Stairs

I admire people that can draw – be it a simple expressive sketch or a complex life-like rendering. I freely admit it’s a skill I haven’t mastered.

But, I was rather encouraged reading about Henri Cartier-Bresson describing his 35mm Leica camera as his “small instant sketch pad” – brilliant, I’m with him!

When I spotted this staircase in downtown Wan Chai (HK) I was instantly drawn to its clean graphic lines. It took a bit of work in Photoshop to create the image I had in mind, but after a few different versions, here it is!
