Don't take a picture in stone steps.

Bleached, beached tree trunk and wooden steps

This was a first quaint discovery in Hobart; the final steps of transition - from the imposing Salamaca Place stone warehouses along the waterfront, down a lane between them to, at the top, be in a world of tiny workers' cottages. So very English.

The Bear Steps are splendid examples of the architecture that make Shrewsbury England's finest Tudor town. Today they house an art gallery, a café and medieval shopfronts. The cafe is where my dad was born in 1914 and lived for the first 7 years of his life with his parents and 3 siblings.

Shrewsbury is the town I was born and went back to after over 40 years, in 2013.

Steps down the cliffside to the place we stayed in Akrotiri, Santorini.

These are some of my daughter's first steps! She is standing on her own now! Yay!

Luckily for me I had my camera with me :)

Steps in the North End, on Snow Hill Street, opposite the Copp's Hill Burying Ground.

Tarr Steps is a medieval clapper bridge over the river Barle which spans the fifty-five foot river in seventeen spans of flat stone. Close by are burial mounds of Bronze Age men from 5,000 years ago.

These are the steps ascending to the Mississippi River overlook at Riverview Park in Alton, Illinois. The second I saw these I had to take a shot. They screamed at me of a dilapidated remnant of the early 20th Century - 1920s or 30's. With this in mind, I just couldn't take a photo and leave it the way it was in perfect brilliant digital color. I had to give the photo a bit more "character". This image is the fruit of my effort

One side of the steps leading onto the terrace of Bowood House in Wiltshire.

The Spanish Steps are a set of steps in Rome climbing a steep slope between the Piazza di Spagna at the base and Piazza Trinità dei Monti,

The Scalinata is "without a doubt the longest and widest staircase in all Europe."

Testing Industar-50-2 f3.5, a very cheap russian lens. I think it is quite sharp wide-open.
