Comment At first view it appears as a zig-zag line rather than stairs, but it's really well-made. Is it possible to increase the stones' sharpness a bit? --Tremonist (talk) 12:07, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
- This is a very high resolution photo, with more than 22Mp. In my opinion the stones of granite are as sharp as they can be. Any further sharpening would cause undesired artifacts. Alvesgaspar (talk) 15:50, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
Support Love the optical illusion created by those dark and harsh shadows. Well spotted and executed – Chapeau! Sharpness is perfectly fine for me. If you can find the stairs on a map, geocoding would be nice. --El Grafo (talk) 08:01, 24 April 2015 (UTC)
Done Thank you @El Grafo: , it's good to know that some of our peers (one, at least!) perceive things the same way we do! Aussi, c'est bon d'être félicité en français! Alvesgaspar (talk) 18:21, 24 April 2015 (UTC)
Support Excellent jeu d'ombres! At low resolution I have the impression that the stones are arranged in the wall and not that they are a stairs outside of this one. -- Christian Ferrer 08:04, 25 April 2015 (UTC)

Support I suggested a very small crop. Could we have a better file name? --Kadellar (talk) 12:20, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks! --Kadellar (talk) 12:36, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
Support Nice subject! Very good! 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 16:08, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
- @Kadellar: & @Slaunger: -- I tried to crop a bit on the top and doesn't work out imo. The bright part in the bottom stair was darkened because it was a bit distracting. Alvesgaspar (talk) 20:47, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
Support Did I say how much I love you when you submit this kind of pictures ?
--Jebulon (talk) 14:43, 27 April 2015 (UTC)
- Indeed you did! Thank you Jebulon, I will try to nominate as many minimalist pictures as I can. Even knowing that most editors don't appreciate them much... Alvesgaspar (talk) 15:09, 27 April 2015 (UTC)
Support very clear composition. --Hubertl (talk) 09:13, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
Support Archaic. --Johann Jaritz (talk) Johann Jaritz 06:02, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
