Mystery Object identified!


While waiting on the third floor of St. Joseph's hospital in downtown St. Paul, I leaned over the open balcony and saw the information desk on the first floor and a visitor ascending the staircase to the second floor. Eureka!  I found the mystery object I posted yesterday.  Because of the distance from the stairs to the camera, you really couldn't see the risers on each step, David was the first to think they could be stairs but clever Jacob figured it out for sure.

  3. I don't think my comment 'thingy' was working very well yesterday, I did have a guess, I said louvres, which as it turns out is completely wrong. What an excellent mystery Kate! Would never have guessed stairs.

  8. Clever shot.

    We have a friend who takes excellent shots of spiral staircases. You have illustrated that a look down over the rail at times can pay dividends, as long as the camera is safely strapped around your neck.

  15. Oh I see. It seemed that the distance between each was too shallow for stairs. Well done. I love this shot.
