Steps outside the office where I work. Brought my camera to shoot an "extracurricular" poker night, but this no-brains-involved shot through a window, turned out to be the best shot, I think.
Bedruthan Steps is a stretch of coastline located on the north Cornish coast between Padstow and Newquay, in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is within the parish of St Eval and is part owned by the National Trust. The Trust maintains a shop and cafe and the cliff–top view of rocks stretching into the distance along Bedruthan beach makes the area a popular attraction for tourists and painters. The property affords walks along the coast path and the steep steps at Bedruthan allow access to a series of rocky beaches at low tide (not owned by the Trust). Signs at the top of the steps down to the beaches warn visitors not to risk swimming in these waters due to heavy rips, fast tides and submerged rocks.

one of my first real attempts with Photoshop... mucking round a bit!
Black and white edition of Steps to Westfield. Washed appearance due to using wrong setting on camera!
Pictures in the lighthouse show that the water used to come right up to the light. The light's no longer particularly near the shore.

The steps leading down to Erskine Falls near Angelsea in Victoria on the Great Ocean Road. Pretty steep. I haven't got any photos of the falls. Well, I do, but nothing I was satisfied with.

This is part of the craggy outcrop that rears up from besides the path as it weaves its way between Steps Bridge and Clifford Bridge on East Dartmoor.
The Spanish Steps (Italian: Scalinata della Trinità dei Monti) are a set of steps in Rome, Italy, climbing a steep slope between the Piazza di Spagna at the base and Piazza Trinità dei Monti, dominated by the Trinità dei Monti church at the top. The Scalinata is the widest staircase in Europe.[1]
The monumental stairway of 138 steps was built with French diplomat Étienne Gueffier’s bequeathed funds of 20,000 scudi, in 1723–1725, linking the Bourbon Spanish Embassy, and the Trinità dei Monti church that was under the patronage of the Bourbon kings of France, both located above — to the Holy See in Palazzo Monaldeschi located below. The stairway was designed by architects Francesco de Sanctis and Alessandro Specchi. (Wikipedia.org)
ODT: 10 steps
Not the intended challenge, too literal I know, but there are 10 so I couldn't resist using it here
Next time you are in Winster start walking down East Bank from Bank Top. Just beyond Wesson Common and The Griffins take the footpath on your left which leads to the top of Chapel Steps.
Walk on down the first few steps and then stop! You will be reacting as countless pedestrians before you have done - take a few moments to admire this view towards Darley Dale in the distance. If you have your camera with you take a shot like this one or walk on a few paces and rest yourself against the wall and take a picture from there.
Then, when you are back at home, wherever you live, and the rain is lashing outside and your thoughts drift back to Winster, you might recall this view.

Gorgeous summer holiday in Cornwall. Subtropical temperature and spotless blue sky creating a wonderful holiday mood but not so much for landscape photography. Bedruthan steps is a remarkable beach for its wild beauty despite having a flat sandy stretch. Most of the photo ops in this beach are oriented around the sea stacks and rock pools. I wanted to break out of that monotony and compose something different. Low angled evening sun creating beautiful reflections of the spectacular cliffs and frozen wave motion was the answer.
Shot taken with Canon 5D, 17-40 L lens, photo focal length-17mm, f/22,ISO-50. Used a B+W CPL. Used this CPL for the first time and as pointed out by two of my friends there is an uneven polarisation of the sky. Could not correct it in post processing!:(

The Sixty Steps were designed by Alexander "Greek" Thomson in the 1870s to provide access to the origianl Queen Margaret Bridge, connecting Kelvinside Terrace and Garriochmill Road. Unfortunately the Queen Margaret Bridge no longer stands and all that remains are the brick foundations on either side of the River Kelvin.
