Q5. How did you come up with the idea of this shot?
The idea came when I was at the top of this staircase, and began looking at it trough the camera. I saw different shapes when I moved just for a bit, and so I made this one which I think looks like an eye. And with some help of Lightroom I emphasized the shapes.
Extra Q: Please share an interesting or funny fact that happened while working on this photograph.
Nebotičnik (č = ch) is actually a Slovenian word, meaning skyscraper. And this building (built in 1933) was the tallest living facility in the whole Europe for about 6 months before someone build a taller building, which was not that difficult since it's only 70 meters tall. At the top there is a coffeehouse, that has been recently reopened. The view from the top is fantastic - you can see the whole capital Ljubljana underneath, and beyond.
The coffeehouse has actually been closed for many years, and I have never been up there. So I went there with a friend, we walked the staircase and realized that we actually couldn't reach to the coffee house by stairs. I took some photos there and we took an elevator to the coffeehouse.
Later, when we got back down, we realized we weren't suppose to use the stairs at all, so I was actually really lucky, because there is usually a guard downstairs, who escorts you to the lift, and the doors to the staircase are normally locked.
