    This very artful photo is flat out, a masterpiece. It possesses every element necessary to place it with the great masters, Steiglitz, Cartier-Bresson...the element of surprise of the red unbrella against the striped wall? Gorgeous. It is basically, a B&W with a touch of red - amazing work, as always, Ben. Beautifully cropped. Perfect contrast...

    Great job placing the umbrella in the extreme lower corner to finally break the monochrome pattern of the stairs.
